OGLERIO OF TRINO, Blessed. - Cistercian abbot, d. 10 Sept. 1214. From about 1205 until his death he was abbot of the monastery of S. Maria di Lucedio near Trino Vercellese. His cult ab immemorabili was confirmed by Pius IX on 18 Apr. 1875.
The 13th-century codex of Staffarda (Turin, UniversityLibrary: E. V. 4; Lat. 761) ascribes to him the Tractatus in laudibus s. Dei Genitricis, a collection of sermons addressed to nuns, composed before 1206, and the Expositio super Evangelium in Coena Domini in 13 homilies, written, already as abbot, for his monks; the latter, in the oldest editions of the Bernardine works, was attributed to St. Bernard. The same holds for the sermon Quis dabis of the Tractatus (G. B. Adriani [v. bibl.], pp. 80-90), published under the title: Tractatus b. Bernardi de lamentatione V. Mariae (cf. E. De Levis, Anecdota sacra, Turin 1789, pp. 60-99).
The religious ideas and the exposition, overflowing with biblical expressions and liturgical reminiscences, often in the form of a moved and pressing dialogue, draw inspiration from the ascetic climate and the language of the Bernardine and Cistercian works of the period; but O., with regard to the Immaculate Conception in the Expositio (G. B. Adriani, p. 226), departs from the negative judgment of St. Bernard, previously followed (Tractatus, in G. B. Adriani, p. 3), with a vigorous affirmation of this singular privilege of Mary.
