The articles in this volume deal with the history of the abbey of
Cluny, both its relations with the outside world and its internal
organisation and spirituality, from its foundation in 910 until the
end of the twelfth century. After an opening article on the early
history of Cluny, relating it to previous monasticism and the
monastic world of the tenth century, there are a group of articles
on how monks were admitted to Cluny, how they were organised, what
they did, and on the monastery's privileges. Two articles are
concerned with Cluny's relations with the abbey of Baume and
another with Cluny and the First Crusade. Finally there are a group
of articles on Cluny in the twelfth century. One deals with the
relations between the abbots and the increasingly assertive
townsmen of Cluny and another with the confused period following
the death of Peter the Venerable, when there were a series of
relatively short-term abbots, and one apparent anti-abbot.
