On the Conduct and Office of Bishops

St. Bernard of Clairvaux

This book is in Portuguese.

Bernard’s Letter 42, a treatise for Henry, archbishop of Sens, on the life and duties of bishops. Mabillon moved it from the letters to the treatises; in the Latin letters book it is represented by a cross-reference. Latin only, from the Maurist text in Migne, a machine-corrected OCR.

Contents

Source: The complete text with Mabillon’s admonitio, chapter headings and summaries. PL page breaks and column numbers are dropped, and so are the paragraph numbers; Scripture references stay in parentheses as printed.
