Meditationes Vitae Christi
The Meditationes Vitae Christi, also known as the Meditationes de Vita Christi (Meditations on the Life of Christ, later translated into Middle English as The Mirror of the Blessed Life of Jesus Christ) is a popular and important fourteenth century religious text. During the Middle Ages, until the late nineteenth century, it was traditionally ascribed to Bonaventure. Once it was realised that the work was not by him, but by an unknown author, the ascription was changed to pseudo-Bonaventure, representing a work previously thought to have been written by Bonaventure, but now of unknown author. Its precise date of composition, and its author, remains unknown, but has occasioned much recent debate. Stallings-Taney (1997) ascribes the work to Johannes de Caulibus. Sarah McNamer (2009) has recently disagreed. She agrees that de Caulibus may well have produced the Latin text and two-thirds of its material. She argues, however, that the core of the Meditationes in fact originated in early fourteenth century Italy and was written by an Italian nun – a core which now survives in a single Italian manuscript. Michelle Karnes (2010), though, is critical of McNamer’s argument, and prefers the traditional view that the author was probably a Franciscan, given that the work is addressed to a Poor Clare. It was clearly popular in the Middle Ages, as evidenced by the survival of over two hundred manuscript copies, including seventeen illuminated ones. The popularity of the work increased further with early printed editions. A Venetian edition of 1497 is the only known Italian blockbook. The work's detailed evocations of moments from the Gospels influenced art, and it has been shown to be the source of aspects of the iconography of the fresco cycle of the Life of Christ in the Scrovegni Chapel by Giotto.[citation needed] It has also been credited with inspiring the great increase in depictions of the Veil of Veronica from the late 14th century.[citation needed]
