The question of predestination and its nature, which drew strong
protests from the monks of Provence in the early fifth century
against the teaching of Augustine of Hippo, was initially settled
by the Council of Orange in 529. But in the Carolingian renaissance
in the ninth century, the Benedictine monk, Gottschalk of Orbais,
brought the teachings of the late Augustine to the forefront of
theological debate and greatly disturbed the clergy and faithful
with his doctrine of double predestination of some to the joy of
heaven and of others to the eternal punishment of hell a doctrine
that he claimed was that of Augustine and the Catholic faith. The
present volume provides for the first time an English translation
of Gottschalks key writings on predestination and various reactions
and comments from leading theologians of the ninth century, as well
as a learned introduction to Gottschalks life and controversies.
