St. Bernard (1090-1153). The 900th Anniversary of Establishment of Clairvaux
Moskal, Tomasz (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2016)
The 900th anniversary of the establishment of the Monastery in Clairvaux by St. Bernard passed on the 25th of June. In this context it is worth recalling this distinguished person who strongly imprinted in the history of the twelfth-century Europe. Moreover, 800 years ago there was one of the most important councils of the Middle Ages – the Fourth Lateran. He had to sort out relationships between the Church and the secular power, announce the next crusade and deal with the sect of the Cathars. What is more, it should be mentioned that it is the 600th anniversary of the birth of Jan Długosz. His Annales are an irreplaceable source of knowledge of the history of the Polish medieval. The recalled anniversaries lead us from Cîteaux, through Clairvaux to Kraków and Jędrzejów. They connect St. Bernard with Wincenty Kadłubek and Jan Długosz. The combination of these anniversaries with the Cistercian world is the subject of this article.
