Rupert of Deutz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rupert of Deutz (c.1075-1129) was an influential Benedictine theologian, exegete and writer on liturgical and musical topics.
He was from Liège, and late in life became abbot of Deutz Abbey. His works include:
- De voluntate Dei
- De omnipotentia Dei
- Commentaria in canticum canticorum
- De divinis officiis
His works were later scrutinized in relation with the heresy of impanation.[1] They influenced the theology in particular of Honorius Augustodunensis and Gerhoch of Reichersberg.
