Caesarius was a monk at the Cistercian monastery of Heisterbach in
Germany, where he served as Master of novices. For their
instruction and edification, he composed his lengthy Dialogue on
Miracles in twelve sections between 1219 and 1223. The many
surviving manuscripts of this and other works by Caesarius attest
to his stature in the history of Cistercian letters. This volume
contains sections one through six of Caesarius of Heisterbach’s
Dialogue on Miracles, the first complete translation into English
of an influential representation of exempla literature from the
Middle Ages. Caesarius’s stories provide a splendid index to
monastic life, religious practices, and daily life in a tumultuous
time.
