Li Dissertation Irimbert of Admont and his Scriptural Commentaries: Exegeting Salvation History in the Twelfth Century Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Shannon Marie Turner Li, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Alison I. Beach, PhD, Advisor David Brakke, PhD Kristina Sessa, PhD Copyright by Shannon Marie Turner Li 2017 Abstract Through an examination of Irimbert of Admont’s (c. 1096-1176) scriptural commentaries, I argue that Irimbert makes use of traditional themes of scriptural interpretation while also engaging with contemporary developments in theology and spirituality. Irimbert of Admont and his writings have been understudied and generally mischaracterized in modern scholarship, yet a case study into his writings has much to offer in our understanding of theology and spirituality at the monastery of Admont and the wider context of the monastic Hirsau reform movement. The literary genre of exegesis itself offers a unique perspective into contemporary society and culture, and Irimbert’s writings, which were written within a short span, make for an ideal case study. Irimbert’s corpus of scriptural commentaries demonstrates strong themes of salvation history and the positive advancement of the Church, and he explores such themes in the unusual context of the historical books of the Old Testament, which were rarely studied by medieval exegetes. Irimbert thus utilizes biblical history to craft an interpretive scheme of salvation history that delicately combines traditional and contemporary exegetical, theological, and spiritual elements. The twelfth-century library at Admont housed an impressive collection of traditional patristic writings alongside the most recent scholastic texts coming out of Paris. Therefore, Irimbert did not work in intellectual isolation, and as such, his writings do not merely recycle traditional exegetical themes and practices. Rather, Irimbert subtly weaves contemporary theological and spiritual subject matter into his interpretive i narratives of the scriptural text. Irimbert’s engagement with contemporary intellectual concerns speaks to a monastic community and reform network that was actively involved in the broader religious and cultural context of the twelfth century. ii To Mom and Dad iii Acknowledgments I am thankful to the following libraries and institutions for allowing me access to their resources during research trips: Stiftsbibliothek Admont, especially Prof. Dr. Johann Tomaschek; Hill Museum and Manuscript Library (HMML); and the Universities of Bonn and Tübingen. I am grateful to the reproduction staff at HMML for their microfilm duplication services. My research could not have been completed without the generous financial support from The Ohio State University (OSU) Department of History, as well as the Heckman Stipend from HMML. I would like to thank the many individuals at OSU who provided me with assistance and advice throughout the course of my graduate studies. I learned much from the reading and independent study courses with David Brakke and Kristina Sessa, and I am grateful for their counsel as my dissertation committee members. I am indebted to the guidance offered by my advisor, Alison Beach. During the summer of my first year in graduate school, I took a research trip to Germany that overlapped with Alison’s. Her spontaneous suggestion to take a trip to Austria and examine the wonderful manuscript collection at Admont fueled my interest in Irimbert, his writings, and his intellectual world. Her subsequent encouragement and insight into the topic were an essential contribution to the polished, final draft of this dissertation. I am thankful to have had an advisor who was both a mentor and a friend. And finally, graduate student life would be quite bleak without the friendship of fellow classmates, and I would especially like to thank Sam Sutherland for his companionship. Not only was he an invaluable source of iv advice concerning grad-school matters, but our countless conversations about anime and our board-game nights were a much-needed diversion. As the dedication to this work indicates, I am forever grateful to my parents, Carolyn and Tony Turner. Their enthusiasm as history buffs and our numerous family vacations to historical sites inspired me to pursue historical studies. More importantly, their continuous love and support has kept me motivated through years of schooling. Finally, I would like to thank my husband, Jimmy. We dated, became engaged, and got married over the course of my graduate studies, and I cannot imagine having gotten through these years without his love and encouragement. He is always a reliable source of practical advice, and this quality of his proved greatly beneficial during the final push. I hope to faithfully reciprocate that love and support. v Vita 2008...................................................................................

COPYRIGHT, 1921, By the Wentern Theological Seminary - i « '' ' PREFACE This outline syllabus of Old Testament History, covering the ground from the Patriarchal Age to the times of Ezra and Nehemiah, is intended for use in the classes of the Western Theological Seminary. It pre- supposes the discussions and lectures of the professor; and the arrangement of the material is such as to compel the student to study the original sources and to get a comprehensive idea of the chief works of modern his- torical literature that bear on the history of ancient Israel. The chief merit of this method of approach to the subject lies in the compulsion which it exerts on the student: first, to master the material; and secondly, to think out the problems for himself instead of taking his conclusions secondhand from a textbook.

  • The Cosmic Multiplications. 99
    THE COSMIC AlULTIPLICATIONS. BY LAWRENCE PARMLY BROWN. THE extant stories of miraculous multiplication or increase of things in number or quantity were evidently suggested by the natural phenomena of reproduction and growth in the animal and vegetable kingdoms ; the solar or soli-cosmic father-god being the great multiplier as the active or spiritual factor in nature, while the function of the earth-mother appears to have been considered of such a purely passive character that she is generally ignored in the multiplication stories that have come down to us. In the Old Testament we find Jehovah as the great multiplier, especially of men (Gen. xvi. 10; xvii. 2, 20; Ex. xxxii. 13; Ezek. xvi. 7; etc.). Habakkuk says to him: "Thou makest men as the fishes of the sea" (i. 1-1—the Heb. dag = fish, from dagah = to multiply, being "so called from multiplying abundantly" ; Gesenius, in voc). Ezekiel makes Jehovah say: "And I will multiply upon you man and beast. .and I will call for the corn, and will multiply it (A. \\, 'increase it') . .And I will multiply the fruit of the tree and the increase of the field" (xxxvi. 11, 29, 30). In Ps. iv. 7, it is said to the Lord : "Thou hast put gladness in my heart more than in the time that their corn and their wine multiplied (A. V., 'increased')." In 1 Kings xvii. 8-16, a "handful of meal in a barrel and a little oil in a cruse" are miraculously multiplied or increased from day to day, as "the Lord God of Israel" promised Elijah, thus for many days feeding not only the prophet but also the poor widow of Zarephtah and her son who dies and is restored to life by Elijah (doubtless for the solar child born of the widowed earth-mother in the fruitless winter season, in which he also dies to be resurrected in the spring as the season of nature's multiplica- tions).

State the problems which were central in the attention of the following schools of Greek philosophy and show how these problems were related to each other: I) School of Miletus; 2) Pythagorean School; 3) Eleatic School; and 4) the Atomists.] 1. In the School of Miletus the central problem was the problem of sub- stance. This school was interested in discovering the one stuff which gave rise to all other stuff. In other words they were interested in know- ing what is the one stuff which is dependent on nothing else, but upon which everything else is dependent. The central problem in the Pythagorean school was the problem of number. The Pythagoreans noticed propotion, relation, order, and har- mony in the world. They reasoned that none of these could not exist without number.
