Philippe Buc, _L'ambiguite du livre: prince, pouvoir, et peuple dans les
commentaires de la bible au moyen age (Beauchesne, 1994).
it is a superb study of the glosses of the more "political" texts in the
bible, showing a very strong precedent to the protestant anti-monarchical
readings of (say) I Samuel 8-13 in the 12th cn, a tradition that gets
"weeded out" by the 13th. complex, subtle, penetrating... and he's a
nice guy too.
