Agli inizi del XIII secolo risale la prima Formula vitae consegnata da Alberto di Vercelli (1150-1214), per alcuni anni anche Patriarca di Gerusalemme (1206-1214), ad un gruppo di eremiti latini dimoranti presso la “Fons Heliae” sul monte Carmelo. Da quel breve testo, è poi derivata la Regola del Carmelo, grazie all’intervento decisivo di ampliamento e di adattamento di papa Innocenzo IV (1247). Da allora quel testo ispiratore e giuridicamente vincolante per l’Ordine carmelitano è rimasto immutato. Questo libro raccoglie gli studi presentati a Lisieux, in un Congresso internazionale (4-8 luglio 2005) fra specialisti: i contributi vertono non solo sulla originalità della Vitae formula nella sua identità e nel suo contesto, ma anche offrono l’analisi della Wirkungsgeschichte (storia degli effetti) della Regola carmelitana lungo i secoli. Storia e attualità
;, ermeneutiche antiche e riletture nuove vengono messe a confronto in una ricerca scientificamente seria e aperta a nuovi approcci culturali. (P. Bruno Secondin O.Carm)

Podemos decir que nuestra Regla no solamente admite, sino que reclama nuevas lecturas de acuerdo a los diversos períodos históricos, a las nuevas sensibilidades y acentos, a los “signos de los tiempos”, buscando esa “fidelidad creativa” que hace de la Regla un texto venerable, una referencia esencial y básica y, al mismo tiempo, un texto significativo para el carmelita del siglo XXI. Este libro, que recoge las ponencias presentadas en un Congreso celebrado en Lisieux en julio de 2005, supone un verdadero avance en el conocimiento de nuestra Regla y en sus muchas posibilidades. (P. Fernando Millán Romeral O.Carm.)

The Rule of Carmel continues today to inspire thousands of men and women around the world and throughout the Church in their lives of allegiance to Jesus Christ even has it has inspired Carmelites over the centuries. This collection of papers by some of the best scholars in the Carmelite family is a landmark in our developing appreciation for this sacred text. The work of these men and women clearly demonstrates that the wisdom of Saint Albert of Jerusalem continues to speak in new times and new places of which those first hermits could never have dreamed. The Rule of Saint Albert is now ready to propel us into a future marked by all the glorious sanctity of our past eight centuries. (Fr. Patrick Thomas McMahon O.Carm.)
