Ambrose, Augustine, Bernard of Clairvaux, Cassian, Gregory the Great, Jerome, Marius Victorinus, Thomas a Kempis and Thomas of Celano). Next to these, it includes the Vulgate, the Old Testament Pseudepigraphs and the Ecumenical Councils, both classical and mediaeval. Among the newly added works are Cyprian's Opera Omnia, several pseudo-Augustinian works, translations from Greek authors, Augustine's newly discovered sermons, the letters of Petrus Damiani, Gratianus' Decretum, and many other texts of primary importance.
