This volume makes available for the first time in English over forty Victorine sermons arranged according the Liturgical year and fully introduced and annotated, and situated in the development of the Latin sermon.


The Victorines were dedicated to furthering the Church’s ministry of preaching and to foster that they wrote, collected, copied and read sermons they gave at the abbey. Maurice de Sully drew on the work in preparing his collection of Old French sermons for parish priests. The Victorines themselves preached carefully crafted sermons in their chapter meetings on Feast Days. This selection of more than forty sermons, most of them translated for the first time, introduced, and annotated, makes their works available to English speaking readers for the first time.
