‎From Dead of Night to End of Day: The Medieval Customs of Cluny Du coeur de la nuit a la fin du jour: les coutumes clunisiennes au Moyen Age,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2005 Paperback, 398 p., 38 b/w ill., 210 x 270 mm. ISBN 9782503518893.‎


‎At the heart of the various articles in this book are four customaries, compiled over the course of nearly a hundred years beginning at the end of the tenth century, that describe daily life and liturgy at the abbey of Cluny. Two principal objectives motivated the creation of the present volume of essays : first, to bring out the unequaled richness of these monastic customaries for scholars, primarily medievalists in all disciplines; and second, to facilitate the use of these sources, which can be challenging at first sight. Drawing upon the multiple disciplines needed to account for the full range of information presented by the customaries, the editors have brought together varied and complementary approaches to these multifaceted documents. Among the principal themes common to the studies in this volume are the genesis and transmission of the customaries, the relationship between texts and practice, and the evidence they offer for the function of monastic spaces as well as for the ritualization of communal life. Au coeur des divers articles de cet ouvrage collectif sont quatre coutumiers, rediges au cours d'une centaine d'annee environ a partir de la fin du Xe siecle, qui decrivent la vie quotidienne et liturgique de l'abbaye de Cluny. Deux objectifs principaux motiverent la creation de ce volume: premierement mettre en valeur la richesse inegalee des coutumiers monastiques pour les chercheurs, a commencer par les medievistes, toutes disciplines confondues, et deuxiemement faciliter l'emploi de ces sources qui peuvent paraitre a premiere vue difficile d'un abord. Seule une approche multidisciplinaire pouvait permettre d'illustrer tout l'eventail d'informations contenues dans ces sources; c'est pourquoi les editrices ont reuni des etudes extrement variees mais complementaires, qui mettent bien en valeur la richesse de ces ecrits. Parmi les themes principaux abordes en ce livre se trouvent la genese et la transmission des coutumiers, la relation entre ces textes et la pratique, l'information qu'ils offrent sur la fonction des espaces monastiques ainsi que la ritualisation de la vie communautaire.
