To write the History of Christian worship in the Latin Middle Ages, constitutes a procedure which enrolls as well medieval culture as the entire society of that time. It is similar to the Bible, which should be considered as the book, which acted, in all parts of a given society, as a normgiving authority. The Christian forms of worshipping within medieval societies of Europe dominated their religious rites and were to be understood as well indicating where to develop to as building up liturgical forms. Liturgical manuscripts are comparable to biblical manuscripts, which used to be of an uncredible textual richness and which wanted to underline the divine word by creative dynamics. Similarly the carefully produced liturgical manuscripts from the Middle Ages and the Early Modern Times, which often leave strong traces of use, show until our days an unimaginable spread of spiritual care and religiousness on the hand of the liturgical ‘authors’. On the basis of all the available manuscripts, the liturgy of the Victorines at Paris should become reconstructable for about a period of nearly 400 years (until about 1500). These liturgical manuscripts contribute to show the cultural as well as the intellectual force of exactly this religious community within Paris: Liturgical texts use to be ordinary texts; the medieval manuscripts transmitting them are, at the same time, contemporary witnesses of christianity. Today, it seems to be elementary for the understanding of the 12th and 13th centuries, to grasp the inner connection between the liturgy which a religious community used to celebrate daily, for example St Victor, and its intellectual ambitions. Carrying out research about the Victorine liturgy of Paris signifies at the same time: One should try to seize the deeper layers of the Victorine engagement in favor of understanding and erudition from the Middle Ages until Modern Times. Because of the Parisian reformed clercs‘ preference for liturgical celebrations, in relationship with the cultivation of erudition and science, they have reached the best modernization of religious life, according to their own understanding, during the twelfth century. It is essential for this project‘s first part, to point out as an example the connection, mentioned here before, of religousness (liturgy, fidelity to the Rule) together with science (erudition, philosophy, literature) according to the liturgical manuscripts of Saint-Victor. This project carries out fundamental research inasmuch its results will enable, on one hand, new historical features about the Church and Reign in France during the Middle Ages and until the French Revolution. On the other hand, it should provide new patterns which are intended to explain the theological revival during the 12th and 13th centuries.

撰写拉丁中世纪基督教崇拜史，构成了一个既涵盖中世纪文化又涵盖当时整个社会的程序。它类似于《圣经》，应该被视为在特定社会的所有部分中充当规范权威的书。欧洲中世纪社会中基督教的崇拜形式在他们的宗教仪式中占主导地位，并且也可以被理解为表明了礼仪形式的发展方向。 礼仪手稿可与圣经手稿相媲美，圣经手稿曾经拥有令人难以置信的文本丰富性，并且希望通过创造性的动力来强调神圣的话语。同样，中世纪和近代早期精心制作的礼仪手稿常常留下强烈的使用痕迹，直到今天，礼仪“作者”手中仍表现出难以想象的精神关怀和宗教信仰。 根据所有现有手稿，巴黎胜利女神的礼拜仪式应该可以重建大约近 400 年（直到大约 1500 年）的时间。这些礼拜仪式手稿有助于展示巴黎这个宗教团体的文化和智力力量：礼拜文本过去是普通文本；传播它们的中世纪手稿同时也是基督教的当代见证。 今天，掌握宗教团体每天庆祝的礼拜仪式（例如圣维克多节）与其知识野心之间的内在联系，似乎是理解 12 世纪和 13 世纪的基础。对巴黎的维多利礼拜仪式进行研究，同时也意味着：我们应该努力抓住维多利礼拜仪式的更深层次，有利于从中世纪到近代的理解和博学。由于巴黎改革宗神职人员对礼仪庆典的偏爱，加上博学和科学的培养，他们认为，在十二世纪，他们的宗教生活已经达到了最好的现代化程度。对于本项目的第一部分来说，根据圣维克多的礼拜手稿，指出前面提到的宗教性（礼拜仪式、对规则的忠诚）与科学（博学、哲学、文学）之间的联系作为一个例子是至关重要的。 该项目开展基础研究，一方面，其结果将使中世纪至法国大革命期间法国教会和统治的新历史特征成为可能。另一方面，它应该提供新的模式来解释12世纪和13世纪的神学复兴。
