Bernard of Clairvaux: Between Cult and History
'Bernard of Clairvaux between Cult and History' summarizes Bredero's lifelong study of Bernard, the Cistercian monk who was arguably the most influential ecclesiastical figure of the twelfth century and who remains one of the church's most venerated saints. This volume, which Bredero himself call his 'final report of a long investigation, ' does not pretend to offer yet another biography of Bernard. Rather it paves the way for future biographical scholarship by pointing out-and often suggesting resolutions to-the many problems that beset this field of inquiry.
