Śmierć Aelreda z Rievaulx - między teorią a rzeczywistością

This article describes the death of the famous medieval abbot, Aelred, from the Cistercian abbey of Rievaulx (England, Yorkshire) (1110-1167). Walter Daniel of Rievaulx, Aelred’s secretary and caretaker, was the only person who wrote about his death.
