More about the book

The Cistercian adventure begins in 1098, when Robert of Molesme, Alberic, and Stephen Harding, driven by the desire to return to the Rule of Saint Benedict, establish their "Novum Monasterium" in a place called "Cistels." With Bernard of Clairvaux, the Cistercian Order multiplies its foundations. Appreciated by religious and political powers, these so-called "white monks" shape an original mystical theology while opening new paths in art and architecture. Even today, the spiritual descendants of the founders of the Order, members of the great Cistercian family, continue to write its history.
