Summary: "Saint Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153) was a commanding and controversial figure in early-twelfth-century Western European religious and political life. Biographical fragments, the Vita Secunda, and the later Vita Quarta are translated here into English for the first time and show how, and why, in Cistercian and Benedictine circles his memory was cherished in the period immediately before and after his death"--Provided by publisher

Summary: "Two biographical fragments of Saint Bernard of Clairvaux's life and works are translated into English for the first time. Saint Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153) was a commanding, and controversial, figure in early-twelfth-century Western European religious and political life. Even before his death, his followers expected him to be canonized-hence the various attempts to record his life, deeds, and miracles. Four of these important early witnesses-two biographical fragments, the Vita Secunda (an abbreviation of the Vita Prima), and the later Vita Quarta are here translated into English for the first time. The material they work and re-work testifies to the many evolving ways in which Bernard was perceived by his near contemporaries. They show how, and why, in Cistercian and Benedictine circles his memory was cherished in the period immediately before and after his death"--Provided by publisher
