International audience ; The abbey of Larrivour (France, Aube), thirtieth daughter of Clairvaux Abbey, is founded in the diocese of Troyes, under the title of Notre-Dame, 9 April 1140 by a colony led by Alain of Flanders. Nothing remains of the buildings of the monastery, sold as national heritage between February 1792 and February 1793, with the exception of an exceptional charter collection and a cartulary, composed c. 1220-30, entered into the Archives départementales de l’Aube during the french revolutionary confiscations (subseries 4H). Inside this archival fonds is a document of great interest, the will that Alain dictated in 1182 to his successor Hardouin, abbot of Larrivour (1152-89).Master of the School of Lille "captured" by Saint Bernard, Alain of Flanders enters in Clairvaux Abbey in 1131. First abbot of Larrivour, he is recommended by St.Bernard to Pope Eugene III and Louis VII, King of France, for the Episcopal See of Auxerre on which he is elected on 30 November 1152. He resigned his office in 1167 and then stayed between Larrivour and Clairvaux, writing the Vita secunda sancti Bernardi. Aged about 75, Alain dictated his last wishes to the scriptorium of Larrivour, under the seal of Hardouin (1152-1189), and his own proper seal. He gave to the community of Larrivour a set of goods, including lands and vineyards resting on two barns of the abbey, as well as seven chalices and the whole of his library, in exchange for masses and prayers in the year after his death and for the foundation of the anniversary of his dead in Larrivour. He died on 14 October 1185-86 and, according to his will, also expressed in this document, is buried in the abbey of Clairvaux, in front of the altar of all the saints, to the right of Geoffroi de la Roche-Vanneau.Edited by the Gallia christiana nova (XII, c.136), as well as by Latin Patrology (t. CCI, c.1389-1392), but never studied, the will of Alain of Flanders raises several questions around the same problematic, that of the status preserved at the end of his life by ...
