Saint Bernard's On Loving God is one of his most delightful, and
most widely read, works. It stands in the tradition of the Fathers
of the Church, but it carries patristic teaching into the Middle
Ages and into the cloister. Its famous affirmation that God is to
be loved without limit, sine modo, is taken directly from the
letters of Saint Augustine. While the tract is not an example of
scholastic theology, it shows a typically twelfth-century love of
logic and an unexpectedly precise use of terminology. In his
analystic commentary, Emero Stiegman not only introduces readers to
the abbot of Clairvaux's thought, but carefully analyses his
language, his logic and his theology. In doing so, he demonstrates
the vital importance of reading medieval authors on their own
terms, without superimposing on them categories favored by later
generations, even our own.
