The Life and Times of St. Bernard (1843)

Augustus Neander

""The Life and Times of St. Bernard"" by Augustus Neander is a detailed biography of one of the most influential figures in medieval Christianity. St. Bernard of Clairvaux was a French abbot and theologian who lived in the 12th century and played a significant role in the reform of the Catholic Church, the Crusades, and the development of the Cistercian monastic order. Neander's book provides a comprehensive account of St. Bernard's life, including his early years, his education, his religious awakening, and his work as an abbot and theologian. The author also explores the broader historical context of St. Bernard's times, discussing the political and social events that shaped his world. Throughout the book, Neander draws on a wide range of primary sources, including St. Bernard's own writings, to provide a nuanced and detailed picture of the man and his times. He also explores the impact of St. Bernard's teachings and legacy on subsequent generations of Christians. ""The Life and Times of St. Bernard"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in medieval history, the history of Christianity, or the life and teachings of one of the most important figures in the history of the Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
