Sabiduría y caridad: La contemplación de la trinidad en Ricardo de San víctor

Zusammenfassung

The writings of Richard of St. Victor highlight the indissoluble relationship between the theology of contemplation and the Trinitarian mystery. Through a detailed analysis of the ideas that he develops in five of his works –Liber Exceptionum, Beniamin Minor, Beniamin Maior, De IV Gradibus Violentae Caritatis and De Trinitate– this research identifies the thematic continuity between them around wisdom and charity, something that has been obscured by the classifications that have separated the unity of his writings into different categories. This recovery of an integral approach to his theology enables us to appreciate its richness, which can introduce the reader into the depths of creation and the human soul, revealing the eternal beauty that resides within them. This leads, from the visible, towards the contemplation of the invisible.
