Abstract

The use of tradition. “Sacri Canonis Missae Duplex Expositio” by Odo of Cambrai and Franciscus Titelmans: the sixteenth-century reuse of a medieval work.

 

Summary

The article is devoted to the commentary on the canon of the Holy Mass composed of the twelfth-century work of Odo, Bishop of Cambrai, and extensive additions by Francis Titelmans, a sixteenth-century Franciscan friar. It raises the question as to why the Renaissance theologian decided to publish the medieval work with his own commentary. It shows that Odo's work was one of the last commentaries on the Eucharist inspired by patristic thought. This indicates that Titelmans may have intended to renew the language of sacramental theology, attacked by the reformers, by returning to pre-scholastic terminology. On the other hand, Titelmans did not avoid typically scholastic formulations. It seems that he wanted to combine the scholastic elements with the patristic thought in order to convincingly expound the Catholic theology of the sacrament of the altar.
