Renaissance Monks: Monastic Humanism in Six Biographical Sketches de Franz Posset

Renaissance Monks: Monastic Humanism in Six Biographical Sketches: Studies in Medieval and Reformation Traditions, cartea 108

Autor Franz Posset
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 iul 2005
This volume deals with the intellectual world of “progressive” Benedictine and Cistercian monks who vicariously represent humanists in cloisters (Klosterhumanismus, Bibelhumanismus) in German speaking lands: Conradus Leontorius (1460-1511), Maulbronn, Benedictus Chelidonius (c.1460-1521), Nuremberg and Vienna, Bolfgangus Marius (1469-1544), Aldersbach in Bavaria, Henricus Urbanus (c. 1470-c.1539), Georgenthal in the region of Gotha and Erfurt, Vitus Bild Acropolitanus (1481-1529), Augsburg, and Nikolaus Ellenbog (1481-1543), Ottobeuren in Swabia.
For the first time in historical-theological research, new insights are provided into the world of the “social group” called Monastic Humanists who emerged next to the better known Civic Humanists within the diverse, international phenomenon of Renaissance humanism.

Recenzii

One may say that we do not get to know very much about the everyday life of the learned monks. But we do get to know that they had everyday problems like any other human beings, and that they sometimes solved these problems in a way that gave priority above almost all to their learned studies. These sketches also make it clear that the monks were quite different - in theology, spirituality, learned interests, and way of life, and cannot be brought together as a homogeneous collective. Their most common feature was perhaps their individuality.
Anders Jarlert, Church History and Religious Culture
