What it is
Commentaries on the whole Bible, on Dionysius, on Peter Lombard, plus treatises on contemplation, on death, and on reform — filling forty-two printed volumes.
Why it lasted
Called the Ecstatic Doctor and the last of the great medieval compilers; his works transmitted the whole scholastic and mystical inheritance into the age of print.
Where to read it
Public domain and free to read in full, though not held here. The archives below have it.
These open a search on each archive rather than a direct link, which is the honest way to point at an edition nobody here has checked line by line.
