Cistercian Identity between Invention and Exploration: The Austrian Abbey Wilhering in the Nineteenth Century
- Homilies given during 19th-century vesting ceremonies for novices in Wilhering Abbey serve here as source material: the sermons show how a venerable Austrian abbey re-discovered its Cistercian roots from generation to generation. Wilhering, close to the city of Linz, had been founded in 1146 but had forgotten monastic observances like silence and enclosure in the Enlightenment and because of anti-monastic imperial decrees. Re-establishing a Cistercian identity at the abbey was a dynamic process led by influential personalities in the abbey. These men, in turn, were influenced by paintings, the scholarly study of architecture, celebrating jubilees, and — perhaps most of all — new biographies of Bernard of Clairvaux.
