Abstract
CHEVALIER, Caroline. Les révisions bibliques carolingiennes. Temas Mediev. [online]. 2006, vol.14, pp.7-29. ISSN 0327-5094.
The author of this article analyzes the history of the Vulgata Bible within the general context of cultural renovation and religious reform which took place during the Carolingian Renaissance when, so she explains, one of the main problems was the difficulty to possess a reliable version of the Bible. After briefly examining the biblical revisions of Maudramne, the manuscripts known as Group of Ada, as well as the one by Angilram, she procedes to an in depth analysis of the important revisions by Alcuin and Theodulf.
Keywords : Bible; Carolingian culture; Alcuin; Theodulf of Orleans.
