Note(s) : The Victorines were scholars and teachers of philosophy, liberal arts, sacred scripture,
music, and contemplation at the Abbey of Saint-Victor in Paris. This collection focuses
on the three greatest Victorines: Hugh (d. 1141), who established the direction of
the school; Richard (d. 1173), who developed Victorine contemplation; and Thomas Gallus
(d. 1246), who culminated Victorine contemplative thought and transmitted it to other
schools, especially the Franciscans. They offer an innovative revival of the Christian
spiritual and intellectual tradition for their reforming pastoral mission in their
urban setting and for the Church.00Their contemporaries saw the Victorines as beacons
of spiritual love and intellectual richness. Later reformers and thinkers held their
writings as touchstones of contemplative love, including, for example, Bonaventure,
Thomas Aquinas, Jean Gerson, Thomas à Kempis, the 'Devotio Moderna', and many others.
The writings of the Victorines found broad appeal among later medieval readers, as
well as praise among early modern reformers, Protestant and Catholic alike. In recent
decades, the Victorines have returned to scholarly attention and renewed appreciation.
Scholarly studies, critical editions, and translation projects reveal the treasures
of Victorine thought and spirituality.00This volume showcases the findings of recent
research and scholarly advances in Victorine studies, offering new readers a 'status
quaestionis' of the field. It also features new research by eminent experts in Victorine
thought that points out promising directions for future research, thus offering important
new findings for established specialists
