Manual Labour as praxis pietatis: Sketch of a Motif in the 17th Century Cistercian Reform at la Trappe

Afdeling for kirkehistorie

Abstract

Artiklen beskriver den rolle, det manuelle arbejde spillede i den cisterciensiske reform i La Trappe i 1660'erne. Ifølge reformatoren Armand-Jean de Rancé tjener det manuelle arbejde dels til at knytte reformen til Regula Benedictis forskrifter om opus manuum, dels til at udmønte den bibelske bestemmelse af det post-lapsariske vilkår som det at arbejde i sit ansigts sved og endelig til at bistå munkene i opøvelsen af bod og ydmyghed.
