This study presents research by specialists of monastic history,
literature, and spirituality. Covering the period from 1150 to
1500, this volume demonstrates that monastic preaching was not only
carried out in the cloister by monks, but also in public arenas by
monks and nuns. The topics range from questioning if the sermons of
Bernard of Clairvaux were ever preached, to an analysis of
Hildegard of Bingen's preaching against the Cathars. Sermons
addressed to monastic communities by secular preachers are also
analysed. The diversity of monastic preaching - e.g., cloistered
preaching, preaching against heretics, preaching by heretical
monks, preaching by nuns - and a geographical range of monastic
pastoral history is studied. "Medieval Monastic Preaching" offers a
preliminary step in understanding how sermons and preaching shaped
monastic identity in the Middle Ages.
