Love and Reason from Hugh of Fouilloy to the Abbaye du Saint Esprit: Changes at the Top in the Medieval Cloister Allegory.

An important group of medieval texts used the architectural and social framework of a monastery, in which virtues were embodied in parts of the structure and also in the obedientaries. In this framework, the notion of a governing virtue was expressed through its personification as the abbot or abbess, and while the early Latin allegories, beginning with the De claustro animae of Hugh of Fouilloy, made Reason the abbot, in a widely copied anonymous French adaptation, the Abbaye du saint Esprit, where the abbey becomes a community of nuns, the abbess is Charity. The reasons for the shift from Reason to Love as governing virtue lie in theological and spiritual developments, as well as in the change of audience from religious and male to lay and female and the new functions for the allegory brought by this shift. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Parergon is the property of Australian & New Zealand Association for Medieval & Early Modern Studies and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
