Bonaventure of Bagnoregio (1221-1274) left a little-known work which has thus far barely been the subject of academic study, namely his commentary on the Gospel of Luke. In this volume it is proven that the commentary is part of the tradition of the Bernard Clairvaux’s monastic theology. Analysis shows that it provides powerful proof that this theology survived in 13th century university theology. The commentary is based on Bonaventura’s lecture at the University of Paris. Unfortunately, no original version of the lecture exists, and the surviving text is the final version of an interpretation that had been carefully reworked by Bonaventura. The content of the commentary is examined on the basis of six main themes: the premise of the commentary, the preacher, the audience, the sermon, Holy Scripture and Christology. In order to place the commentary in the context of the Bonaventura’s theology an attempt has been made to illuminate these topics with references to Bonaventura’s other works – in particular, the spiritual writings, the various Collationes and his written sermons.

German Description: Bonaventura von Bagnoregio (1221-1274) hat ein wenig bekanntes und kaum wissenschaftlich behandeltes Werk hinterlassen: seinen Kommentar uber das Lukasevangelium. Diese Arbeit weist nach, dass dieser Kommentar in der Tradition der monastischen Theologie Bernhards von Clairvaux steht. Die Analyse zeigt, dass es ein wichtiges Zeugnis dafur ist, dass diese Theologie in der Universitatstheologie des 13. Jahrhunderts fortlebt. Der Kommentar geht aus Bonaventuras Vorlesung an der Universitat Paris hervor. Leider ist davon keine Nachschrift vorhanden, der uberlieferte Text ist die von Bonaventura sorgfaltig ausgearbeitete abschlieaende Fassung seiner Auslegung. Der historische Hintergrund des Kommentars wird an Hand zweier Themen beleuchtet: der Auseinandersetzungen im Rahmen des Mendikantenstreites und der Rezeption und Aufnahme der Ideen des kalabrischen Abts Joachim von Fiore. Zwei Elemente bilden den ‘Grundton’ des Denkens von Bonaventura in diesem Kommentar: die vom Ordensstifter Franziskus von Assisi ausgehenden Impulse und die Tradition der monastischen Theologie Bernhards von Clairvaux. Der Inhalt des Kommentars wird an Hand von sechs Themen vorgestellt: die Ausgangspunkte des Kommentars, der Prediger, der Zuhorer, die Predigt, die Heilige Schrift und die Christologie. Um den Kommentar im Rahmen der Theologie Bonaventuras zu wurdigen, ist versucht worden die genannten Themen auch aus anderen Schriften Bonaventuras zu beleuchten. Dabei sind vor allem die spirituellen Schriften, die verschiedenen Collationes und die Textpredigten herangezogen worden.
