Who was Rupert of Deutz?
Rupert of Deutz was an influential Benedictine theologian, exegete and writer on liturgical and musical topics.
He was from Liège, and late in life became abbot of Deutz Abbey. His works include:
⁕De voluntate Dei
⁕De omnipotentia Dei
⁕Commentaria in canticum canticorum
⁕De divinis officiis
⁕De Gloria et Honore Filii Hominis super Mattheum, composed about 1127.
⁕De Trinitate et operibus eius, written around 1112-16.
⁕De glorificatione Trinitatis et processione Spiritus sancti, written in 1128.
His works were later scrutinized in relation with the doctrine of impanation, a Eucharistic heresy according to the Roman Catholic Church because--contrary to the dogma of transubstantiation wherein the substance of the bread and wine is wholly converted into the substance of Christ's Body and Blood, united to his divine person--impanation maintains that Christ directly unites the substance of the bread and wine to his divine person, just as he united his own body and blood to his divine person. They influenced the theology in particular of Honorius Augustodunensis and Gerhoch of Reichersberg.
