To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
St. Bernard is recorded as sending Frater Achard, master of the novices at Clairvaux, to many French and German abbeys in order to direct the erection of their buildings. In Italy the first Cistercian abbey, Fossanova, between Rome and Capua, rebuilt 1 187-1208, is thoroughly Burgundian ; no Italian architect could have designed it. The next Cistercian church built in Italy was Casamari, which is also Burgundian. The great church of San Galgano, in Tuscany, 1 208, is an exact reproduction of th...at of Casamari ; it was built by Frater Conversus Ugolino di Maffeo, Frater Petrus operaritis, and Frater Matheus magister operis lignaminis. The accounts of Siena cathedral shew that the operarius there was Frater Vernaccio in 1259, and in 1260 Frater Conversus Melano, and that both of them were from San Galgano.^ A chronicle relates that in 1124 Wigbold, the Cistercian abbot of Aduard in the diocese of Groningue, wishing to rebuild his church, sent a lay brother to sketch the plan and details of Citeatix, which he wished to reproduce with the greatest possible exactness.'^ **At Duns, in Flanders, it is recorded that the Cistercians not only designed but worked at the building of their church." ** There is evidence that the Abbot of Beaulieu, Hampshire, got from Rouen a certain Durandus, who was a mason there from 12 14 to 1254.
