medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Thanks John. Oh, to have the PL database here!
The attribution to Richard by Glorieux (1952) is probably based on an
article by J. Chatillon, "Le contenu, l'authenticité et la date du Liber
exceptionum et des sermones centum de Richard de Saint-Victor," in Revue du
moyen åge latin, 4 (1948): 343-366 (for those who might want the
reference).
On the Sermones centum, see also Chatillon's ed. of the Liber exceptionum,
pp. 65 and 77.
best
Grover
