The first English translation of two important Mariological treatises by the noted Carolingian theologian Paschasius Radbertus
BIO
Fr. Mark Vaillancourt is the author of several works on Eucharistic theology and translator of Paschasius Radbertus’s treatise on the Eucharist, De corpore et sanguine Domini (Corpus Christianorum in Translation, vol. 34). He is a priest of the Archdiocese of New York, pastor of St. Mary the Assumption parish in Katonah, New York, and the President and Principal of John F. Kennedy Catholic Preparatory School located in Somers, New York.
Summary
The De partu Virginis and the De assumptione Sanctae Mariae Virginis are important Mariological treatises by the noted Carolingian theologian Paschasius Radbertus. This work presents for the first time an English translation with theological introduction and commentary of the entire volume of Corpus Christianorum Continuatio Mediaevalis (CC CM), volume 56C. The two texts give key insights into the dogmatic development during the post patristic era of the doctrines of Mary’s perpetual virgnity (in particular her virginity in partu) and her bodily assumption into heaven. Written for the nuns of the convent of Soisson France, they also provide important source material for the study of female spirituality during the Carolingian Reformation era.
