Founded in 910 by Duke William of Aquitaine, the abbey of Cluny
rose to prominence in the eleventh century as the most influential
and opulent center for monastic devotion in medieval Europe. While
the twelfth century brought challenges, both internal and external,
the Cluniacs showed remarkable adaptability in the changing
religious climate of the high Middle Ages. Written by international
experts representing a range of academic disciplines, the
contributions to this volume examine the rich textual and material
sources for Cluny's history, offering not only a thorough
introduction to the distinctive character of Cluniac monasticism in
the Middle Ages, but also the lineaments of a detailed research
agenda for the next generation of historians. Contributors are:
Isabelle Rose, Steven Vanderputten, Marc Saurette, Denyse Riche,
Susan Boynton, Anne Baud, Sebastien Barret, Robert Berkhofer III,
Isabelle Cochelin, Michael Hanchen, Gert Melville, Eliana Magnani,
Constance B. Bouchard, Benjamin Pohl, and Scott G. Bruce.
