Krzysztof Bardski (rev. prof. dr. hab.) – presbyter of the Warsaw Archdiocese, lecturer at CSWU and PFTW (Pontifical Faculty of Theology in Warsaw), doctor of Biblical Studies of the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Rome, Head of the Department of Biblical Hermeneutics and Theology at the Faculty of Theology of CSWU, expert of the National Science Centre, translator and editor of the Ecumenical Bible and the Paulist Bible, author of books on the subject of the Bible and patristics and several academic and popular articles. He specializes in hermeneutics and biblical philology, as well as the history of interpretation and the influence of the Bible in Christianity and Judaism.
In the article, we will present the life and works of Garnier of Langres, and show the specificity of the Allegoriae in universam Sacram Scripturam and the problems associated with the attribution of the work and the manuscript tradition. It will also reveal the inadequacy of the text published in Patrologia Latina and the need for a critical edition.
