| Summary: | Richard of St Victor is an important figure both in the Victorine tradition and in the history of Western mysticism. His De Trinitate is a work in which he reveals himself as a significant contributor in other fields of active interest in the mid-to-late twelfth century. Ruben Angelici has used the Sources chrétiennes Latin text of G. Salet, and has provided an extensive introduction and commentary, though no index except to authors and to Scripture. He has endeavoured to offer ‘as literal a translation … as possible, without appearing pedantic’. An English translation has long been needed and the present version is welcome for that reason., The greater part of the introduction is taken up with a ‘general overview of the history of Trinitarian thought’ and the commentary. |
