The Book of Bertram, Monk of Corbie, A.D. 840: On the Body and Blood of the Lord is a historical text written by Ratramnus Monk of Corbie in 1880. The book is a translation of a manuscript written by Bertram, a monk who lived in the 9th century, and focuses on the Eucharist and the nature of Christ�������s presence in the sacrament. Bertram�������s views on the Eucharist were controversial at the time, and the book provides insight into the theological debates of the Middle Ages. Ratramnus, who was also a monk of Corbie, provides commentary and analysis throughout the text.
