Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Treatise of St. Bernard, Abbat of Clairvaux: Concerning Grace and Free Will, Addressed to William, Abbat of St. Thierry The treatise of St. Bernard De Gratia et Libera Arbitrio was written at some time shortly previous to the year 1128, and therefore before the author had attained his thirty-eighth year. St. Bernard, in a letter addressed to Hincmar, Chancellor of the Holy See, which the Benedictine editor dates as circ. an mcxxviij, refers to the fact that Geoffrey, Bishop of Chartres, had asked him to send Hincmar some of his "opuscula"; he had at the time, so he thought, nothing at hand worthy of Hincmar´s attention, but he adds: "Libellum tamen De Gratia et Libera Arbitrio nuper edidi; illum uobis libenter mittam, cum uos uelle cognouero" (St. Bern. Epist. LII). That portion of the Vita Prima of St. Bernard (Books III, IV, and V)which was the work of Geoffrey of Auxerre, St. Bernard´s notarius at Clairvaux and afterwards himself abbat there, contains, in Book III, chap. viij. 29, which makes mention of a certain number of St. Bernard´s works and notices the extent to which they reveal his spirit, an interesting reference to the De Gratia et Libera Arbitrio: "Quam non ingratus gratiae Dei, ex his liquet quae de gratia et libero arbitrio quam fideliter, tarn subtiliter disputauit."
