Sumario: | Richard, abbot of Préaux from 1101 to 1131/32, produced a number of voluminous commentaries, some of which, including a commentary on the Song of Songs, were considered until recently to be lost. The Canticles commentary, however, is not lost, but is to be found in a twelft-century manuscript in the library of Worcester Cathedral in England. The work is a sound example of eleventh-century monastic exegesis, and reveals that for Richard, the conjuctio of bride and Bridegroom is a conjunctio fidei which is experienced in living a virtuous and charitable life in accordance with the beliefs of the Christian faith and God's revealed will. |
