Title : Una mariologia d'avanguardia nel secolo XII: Immacolata Concezione e Assunzione corporea di Maria secondo Goffredo d'Auxerre [Although Geoffroi d'Auxerre is identified with Bernard of Clairvaux's attack on Peter Abelard's theological innovations, he was an innovator in Mariology. Unlike Bernard, Geoffroi believed in Mary's Immaculate Conception and the Assumption of her body into heaven after death. He employed biblical texts as proof, but he also argued that Mary's body was not inferior to her soul. Includes text of "De vocatione sponsae in Cantico Canticorum" and "De verbis sapientiae." Title note supplied by Feminae.].

Title : Fonti Anselmiane dei testi mariani di San Bernardo [Bernard of Clairvaux can be found using terminology in his Marian writings that echoes the prayer of Anselm of Canterbury. This is particularly evident in Bernard's description of Mary's mediating role in salvation. It is not clear whether Bernard knew Anselm's Prayers directly or indirectly.

Title : La mariologia di Bernardo di Clairvaux nelle "Homeliae in laudibus verginis matris" [Bernard of Clairvaux focused, in his sermons on the Annunciation, on Mary's becoming holy. This precluded his believing in her Immaculate Conception. Mary's humility opened the way to her sanctification and for the virgin birth, just as that virtue opens the way for a Christian to become holy. Title note supplied by Feminae.].

Title : Produced in Sin: Innocent III's rejectionof the Immaculate Conception [Like Bernard of Clairvaux, Innocent III venerated Mary without believing she was conceived free of Original Sin. Mary was the new Eve, sanctified in her mother's womb but still nourished by menstrual blood, an evidence of sin. Innocent believed Mary's being born in sin ensured Christ's being born with truly human flesh. She was born in sin but helped bring salvation, while Eve was born without sin but helped bring sin and death. Title note supplied by Feminae].

Title : Si cor sentit, hoc non est ipsa. Morte dello spirito e liberazione del cuore in Margherita Porete [Marguerite Porete believed the soul had to suffer successive deaths - to sin, to nature, and to the spirit - to achieve annhilation, being united with God. This last involved the loss of the individual will. Porete used Cistercian and Augustinian elements in her mystical writing, but she regarded the will as the obstacle to union with God. With it gone, true union was possible. Title note supplied by Feminae.]

Title : La santa danza di David e il ballo peccaminoso di Salomé: Due figure esemplari dell'immaginario biblico medievale [although there are both holy and ungodly dances in the Bible, early on Christain exegetes dismissed most dances as sinful; David's dance before the Ark, however, was interpreted as dignified and orderly, expressing spiritual submission to God or as acrobatics showing his humility by laying aside his royal garb and his dignity; medieval artists did not generally depict David's dance, but both artists and preachers condemned Salomé's dance before Herod as lascivious; fashions in the depiction of her dance changed, but Salomé remained a figure of woman's seductive power].

Title : Some Mediaeval Theologians and the Sophia Tradition [The author explores the diverse ways in which four theologians transformed the Biblical figure of Sophia, or Wisdom, into a powerful feminine image of God’s activity in creation and redemption. In the twelfth century, Bernard of Clairvaux frequently alluded to the figure of Wisdom from the Song of Songs in order to represent the maternal and nurturing qualities of the Divine; Hildegard of Bingen’s images of the feminine divine, in contrast, stressed the active forces of creation and redemption. In the fourteenth century, Henry Suso casts himself as a courtly lover who courts Wisdom as a knight serves a lady; Julian of Norwich adapts the maternal imagery of the Divine to embrace a much more inclusive and wider affective range.
