On Christian doctrine by 6535781|Augustine of Hippo book cover

📘 On Christian doctrine

"This translation of St. Augustine's De doctrina Christiania is based on the Benedictine text. Quotations from the Bible appear in the Douay-Rheims version, but the footnotes contain reference in brackets to indicate the location of corresponding verses in the King James Bible where the Bible contains the same material arranged according to a different system. Essentially, On Christian Doctrine is an introduction to the interpretation and explanation of the Bible."--Translator's preface and introduction.

On loving God by 1405821|Saint Bernard of Clairvaux book cover

📘 On loving God

Saint Bernard's On Loving God is one of his most delightful, and most widely read, works. It stands in the tradition of the Fathers of the Church, but it carries patristic teaching into the Middle Ages and into the cloister. Its famous affirmation that God is to be loved without limit, sine modo, is taken directly from the letters of Saint Augustine. While the tract is not an example of scholastic theology, it shows a typically twelfth-century love of logic and an unexpectedly precise use of terminology. In his analystic commentary, Emero Stiegman not only introduces readers to the abbot of Clairvaux's thought, but carefully analyses his language, his logic and his theology. In doing so, he demonstrates the vital importance of reading medieval authors on their own terms, without superimposing on them categories favored by later generations, even our own.

Didascalicon by 3981089|Hugo de São Vítor book cover

📘 Didascalicon

O que aqui se oferece ao leitor é uma obra rica e profunda, que por muito tempo constituiu um dos pilares da educação cristã. Neste Didascalicon sobre a arte de ler, o mestre Hugo de São Vítor apresenta as artes liberais e orienta seus alunos mostrando o que devem ler, em que ordem e, especialmente, de que modo devem fazê-lo. Tendo como base a tradição e as Sagradas Escrituras, sua pedagogia visava formar os estudantes para alcançarem a contemplação, o último grau da Sabedoria — com a qual “tem-se um antegosto nesta vida do que será a recompensa futura” —, uma formação integral que proporcionasse a união com Deus. Colocando o foco da educação no próprio estudante, este modelo da educação cristã não é um livro sobre como ensinar, mas sim sobre como aprender; não é um tratado de didática, mas uma verdadeira aula a todo aquele que deseje percorrer o caminho que conduz à Sabedoria. “Existem principalmente duas coisas por meio das quais alguém é conduzido ao conhecimento, a saber, a leitura e a meditação, das quais a leitura vem em primeiro lugar no aprendizado, e é sobre ela que se ocupa esse livro, oferecendo os preceitos da arte da leitura. São três os preceitos mais necessários à leitura: primeiro, saber o que se deve ler; segundo, em que ordem se deve ler, isto é, o que vem antes e o que vem depois; terceiro, de que modo se deve ler. Este livro trata destes três preceitos, separadamente. Assim sendo, ele instrui tanto sobre a leitura dos escritos profanos quanto sobre a dos divinos”. Edição bilíngue Latim-Português Tradução e notas: Roger Campanhari
