The Mystical Theology of St. Bernard: Volume 120

by Étienne Gilson and A.H.C. Downes

Book Overview

This classic study placed the saint squarely among the outstanding theologians of the Middle Ages, and stripped away the sentimentality in which popular piety had wrapped him. Gilson demonstrates in Bernard's works his blend of monastic tradition and the new learning of the early twelfth century.
