This book presents an invaluable selection of sermons and
theological treatises of the twelfth century author, Isaac of
Stella. The English born abbot of the French Cistercian monastery
of Stella on the Isle of Re is one of the most inspiring, yet
equally elusive, representatives of the great twelfth-century
Cistercian Renaissance more widely associated with the person of
Bernard of Clairvaux. The astonishing spiritual and intellectual
depth of Isaac's surviving writings makes him a valuable read for
anyone aiming to receive a complete picture of the intellectual
heritage of the Middle Ages. Of the twenty-five sermons by Isaac
presented in this volume, ten are made available here in an English
translation for the first time. These are accompanied with two new
studies examining Isaac of Stella's work from an historical,
literary as well as theological perspective.
