Foreword . . . audaci promere cantu mens congesta iubet. (Claudian, De raptu Proserpinae) The Old Testament predominated in my Study of the Bible in the Middle Ages; I gave only passing glances at study of the New. Curiosity has driven me to fill in the gap, at least partially, by examining some Gospel commentaries of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. The Gospels posed different problems from those of the Old Testament books to the medieval schoolmen. A different type of book confronted them, calling for new kinds of evidence. The persons and events described there belonged to the new age, the last of St. Augustine's ages before the seventh would bring the Last Things to the world. The schoolmen's Church, as they perceived it, prolonged the Church founded by Christ and his apostles. The Gospels belonged to their era, whereas the Old Testament merely foreshadowed it. How did this difference affect exegesis? Perhaps I should have quailed at the task, had I foreseen the fog of uncertainty lying over the commentaries and glosses of the early twelfth century, the elusiveness of an Alexander of Hales and the flood of new sources let loose by John of Wales and Albert the Great. My rash attempt has resulted in a bare survey. Age and ill health have prevented me from travelling far afield. I have had to rely on such manuscripts, microfilms and printed editions as came to hand. To make a thorough study of each commentary was 'not on'. The comforting thought is that one person's end may mark another's beginning, and that my struggles with the subject may offer guide-lines to future researches. The amount of technical detail involved even in such a survey may daunt some readers. The reasons for its presence are first that one has to ask 'who, when and where?' before discussing a commentator; the question may be difficult or impossible to answer, given the number of anonymous or unascribed commentaries. Second, one has to track down and isolate the sources, since commentaries tend to be derivative. Success in this painful task will tell us or hint at two facts about the author; which sources appealed to him and what choice he had among the books available to him; what personal or original comments he made. Knowledge of his sources is all the more needed in that he often made unacknowledged borrowings from them. No student of medieval exegesis can avoid these queries, nor can he ignore changes in the techniques employed. What others he chooses to make are his own business. Mine, which would not be everyone's, are how far he interpreted the Gospel in terms of his own experience and how he reacted to

Some Gospel Commentaries of the Early Twelfth Century The scarcity of twelfth-century commentaries on St Matthew surprised the late Father D. Van den Eynde : La scolastique naissante, si riche en gloses et commentaires sur les Psaumes et les gpitres de saint Paul, n'en connait que tres peu sur ~'~vangile de saint Matthieu '.

Early medieval commentaries on the other gospels were also few and far between. Burgundio of Pisa gave as a reason for translating St John Chrysostom's homilies on the fourth gospel that the Latins, as far as he knew, possessed no continuous exposition of it apart from St Augustine's 2 . Burgundio finished his translation in 11743. As his editor points out, the Pisan did not know of the commentary of Rupert of Deutz, written about 1115; but Rupert's commentary on this book never circulated widely4. Van den Eynde contrasted the dearth of gospel commentaries with the number on the Psalter and St Paul. The contrast reflects school teaching. Lectures on the Psalter and St Paul became part of the curriculum at an early date. A letter in a model letter collection from Hildesheim, 1054-1085, is written by a student, probably studying at a school in northern France, dissuading a friend from going to fight in Saxony. The student entices his friend to come to the schools instead, by telling him that his 1 . Autour des "Enarrationes in Evangelium S. Matthaei" attribuies a Geojfroi Babion, in Rech.

Peter Comestor on the Gospels and his Sources This chapter will describe Peter Comestor as a pioneer of lecturing on the gospels at Paris. It follows on 'Some Gospel Commentaries of the Early Twelfth Century", where I dealt with commentaries emanating from the school at Laon. The nature of the subject forced me to dwell on questions of authorship and of relations between commentaries. Content and doctrine had to wait their turn. Comestor imposes himself as the starting point in studying them, since he was the first Paris master whose lectures on the gospels have come down to us. An account of his techniques as a lecturer and of his sources will provide a framework for his doctrine. I shall focus on his attitudes to the precepts of the Sermon on the Mount, to apostolic poverty and to ecclesiology. On all counts it is necessary to begin with a sketch of patristic teaching on the gospels as it passed down to Comestor in the originals and through intermediaries such as the Gloss. What techniques of exegesis and what doctrine on gospel texts did he inherit from his predecessors?

The patristic technique of exegesis left a zone of uncertainty in the demarcation of the literal and spiritual senses. The 'letter' represented a veil, shell or rind, hiding the sweetness of the spiritual senses within *. This concept enabled the Old Testament to be read in the light of the New; but it was transferred to the New Testament also. Bede offers a striking example in his comment on the story

An Early Paris Lecture Course on St. Luke On June 1 , 1977 the Bodleian Library bought a manuscript, now shelf-marked as Lat.d.th.45, at Christie's sale (lot 159). It belonged originally to the Cistercian abbey of Morimondo in the diocese of Milan, and passed through the hands of the humanist scholar Paolo Giovio (1483-1552), who is known to have acquired some MSS from this abbey. It contains an unidentified commentary on the Gospel of St Luke. Dom JeanLeclercq has edited two catalogues of Morirnondo MSS, one of the turn of the twelfth century, the other of the seventeenth. Neither of them lists the Bodleian commentary; but Dom Leclercq has shown that the monks continued to enlarge their library after the first catalogue was made, though their books were dispersed later ; the second lists only a residue l .

T h e Gospels in the Paris Schools in the Late Twelfth and Early Thirteenth Centuries Peter the Chanter, Hugh of S t . Cher, Alexander of Hales, John of La Rochelle

Concepts of the vita evangelica vel afiostolica form a central theme in medieval studies today. We now know more about the background to the rise of the Mendicant Orders; we can watch the development of various aspirations t o live according to the Gospels among both orthodox and heretical groups in Christendom. We have a better, though by no means complete understanding of the friars' efforts to carry out the plans of their founders, St. Dominic and St. Francis. Here I want to quarry in an area of information which is still largely unexplored: lectures on the Gospels given in the Paris schools c. 11731245. The conflict between secular masters and Mendicants from the 1250s onward has high-lighted polemical exegesis of biblical texts. The commentaries of the great schoolmen are available in print. But there is a gap in our knowledge of Bible teaching in the schools in precisely the period when Mendicants took over from seculars. Earlier neglect of this subject need cause no surprise: of the four scholars named in my title only Hugh of St. Cher on the whole Bible can be read in print, and that in early uncritical editions. The others' commentaries are still in manuscript and bristle with difficulties. They raise problems of authenticity, inter-relationships and variants, sometimes stemming from several reportationes of the same lecture course. And yet Gospel commentaries in particular suggest crucial questions: how did masters, secular or religious, interpret the Sermon on the Mount, apostolic poverty and preaching to their pupils? Disputations and commentaries on the Sentences or Summas would provide a framework for such interpretation; the Gospels focused attention on it. No lecturer could evade problems posed by the contrasts between the life and teaching of Jesus on the one hand and the practice and theory of the contemporary Church

The Gospels in the Schools c.1250 - c.1280 Bonaventure, John of Wales, J o h n Pecham, Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas

I. BONAVENTURE The storm broke out in the ten years between the death of John of La Rochelle, 1245, and Bonaventure's regency, 1254-1257.' The secular masters' jealousy of the mendicants, lowering for some years, flashed out in polemic, pamphlet-warfare and appeals to ~ o m e . 'Seen from the seculars' point of view, the friar doctors were brain-drainers, who enticed gifted students and hence withdrew both prestige and fees away from the seculars; some masters treacherously went over to the enemy camp. They were strikebreakers, continuing to teach during the Paris university dispersions of 1229-1231 and 1253. They were also sneaks, currying favour in high places and especially at Rome, the source of privileges and bulls of protection. The seculars had relied on papal support to establish the university as an independent corporation; now they felt the resentment of the elder child ousted from first place by its junior. They could act as spokesmen for wider circles, since the parish clergy increasingly disliked the pastoral role of the friars as interference with their own rights and duties. The Franciscan studium at Paris came into the very heart of the storm, owing to the friars' attempt to gain a second chair in theology. The Dominicans already had two, dating from about 1230; the Franciscans had only one official chair; their second regent taught internally and they wanted him to be raised to university status. The secular masters of theology thought that three mendicant chairs were more than enough. They refused to recognise a fourth and even called in question the Dominicans' right to hold two at St. Jacques. William of St. Amour stepped forward as the seculars' leading polemicist. His anti-mendicant tract, De periculis novissimorum temporum (first draft early 1256) attacked the university friars, never named, but referred to as false brethren, hypocrites and intruders, on a wide front, disputing their right to exist as religious Orders at all. He urged drastic measures: condemn begging and force the friars to earn their bread by manual work; that would put paid to their study and teaching at one blow; they would have no time for schools. William, a canonist and theologian, argued from a wide range of texts from the Old and New Testaments that mendicancy and what the friars attempted to practise as 'apostolic poverty' had no warrant in Scripture and indeed were blamed there. Even before the publication of De periculis William had confronted Bonaventure in quaestiones disputatae on the issues of poverty and mendicancy in the autumn of 1255. Even after De periculis

Conclusions We have come a long way from the formless compilation of excerpts connected with the school at Laon to the scholastic lecture course with its opening text from Scripture, its chapters, its divisions, its distinctiones and its quaestiones. Yet several threads of continuity run all the way through because almost every master chose an earlier commentary as his basic source, sometimes naming its author, more often quoting anonymously. This practice prolonged the Laon habit of expanding earlier sets of glosses. The anonymous exposition of St. Matthew in MS Alenqon 26, copied by the historian Orderic Vitalis at St. fivroul, whose author I call A, is the first compilation from the Laon circle to deserve the title of 'commentary'. A served as basic source for a second anonymous commentator, whom I call B without prejudice to his proposed identification with Geoffrey Babion, which is most unlikely. B was a religious who had probably studied in some school in northern France, perhaps Laon, and was writing in the 1140s. His commentary passed into the Paris schools owing to Peter Comestor's use of it. A parallel link between Paris and Laon appears in the transfer of the Laon Gloss to Paris. Peter Lombard lectured on a glossed text of St. Luke; so did an anonymous lecturer on Luke whom I call L, teaching at Paris probably in the 1160s. Comestor and his successors at Paris all lectured on the glossed text. Peter the Chanter, lecturing on a conflated text of the Gospels, also made some use of B. The Dominican Hugh of St. Cher bridged a long time span by taking Comestor as his basic source on the Gospels, as well as quoting less frequently from the Chanter. Alexander of Hales, it is now clear, borrowed from Hugh of St. Cher. Here we have a loop instead of a straight line: Alexander also went back to A , calling him 'Anselm' and probably meaning Anselm of Laon, a false attribution. John of La Rochelle used both Hugh and Alexander. Now comes another loop: Alexander and John of La Rochelle probably both taught Bonaventure; but he seems to have passed them over; he went back to Hugh of St. Cher in his commentaries on St. Luke and St. John. The English friar John of Wales used Bonaventure as his basic source when lecturing at the Oxford Greyfriars. John Pecham, lecturing at Paris, used both Bonaventure and John of Wales. John of Wales and Pecham witness to the close link between the Franciscans at Paris and Oxford, since John of Wales could use Bonaventure and Pecham John of Wales so soon. Tentatively I suggest the following sequence of 'borrowed from' and borrower. I list only main sources; occasional allusions and quotations are not counted. A-B-Comestor and Chanter-Hugh of St. Cher (making more use of Comestor)-Alexander (who also went back to A)-John of La Rochelle (using both Hugh and Alexander); Hugh of St. CherBonaventure-John of Wales-John Pecham (using both Bonaventure and
