Cistercians and Cluniacs: St Bernard's Apologia to Abbot William
Bernard of Clairvaux$12.71
$14.95
This Apologia, composed by Bernard and approved by William, the Benedictine abbot of Saint-Thierry, excoriates monks black and white: Cistercians who had become slanderers, Cluniacs who had grown self-indulgent. Bernard's satirical wit spared no one who had lost sight of the monk's first duty, the love of God and the brethren.
