Starting from the theory of scriptural interpretation elaborated by Hugh of St. Victor, the Augustinian Canons of twelfth-century St. Victor in Paris were leading theorists and practitioners of scriptural exegesis. This volume contains complete translations of the exegetical theories elaborated in Hugh of St. Victor's (d. 1141) Didascalicon, On Sacred Scripture and its Authors, and The Diligent Examiner as well as Godfrey of St. Victor's Fountain of Philosophy. It has excerpts from Hugh's On the Sacraments, Andrew of St. Victor's (d. 1175) commentaries, Richard of St. Victor's (d. 1173) Book of Notes and Apocalypse commentary, Robert of Melun's Sentences, and the anonymous Speculum on the Mysteries of the Church.
About the Series
The importance of the “school” of St. Victor in the development of 12th- and 13th-century theology has long been recognized, but there have been few English translations of Hugh of St. Victor and his successors, whose works have had great influence on later medieval thinkers and retain perduring value for contemporary theology. Ten volumes are planned.
"The surfeit of translations of patristic and medieval commentaries on the Bible is changing not only how the Bible is interpreted today but also how theologians use the Bible. Interpretation of Scripture offers a judicious selection of writings from sophisticated thinkers who addressed the hermeneutics of biblical interpretation. This rich and substantive volume puts to flight the clichés about medieval exegesis and gives biblical scholars as well as theologians much to ponder." -- Robert Louis Wilken, William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor of the History of Christianity, Emeritus, University of Virginia
"This volume will guide even seasoned scholars in the ongoing analysis of the Victorine legacy. The contributors include known experts in Victorine studies such as Hugh Feiss, OSB, and Franklin Harkins and Frans van Liere are among the most diligent and best of the new generation of Victorine scholars." -- E. Ann Matter, William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor, Department of Religious Studies, University of Pennsylvania
