life and work

Bernard Bogdanowicz (also: Bogdanovitz ) was a monk of the Cistercian monastery Jędrzejów in Poland. From 1686 to 1716 he was procurator of the Polish Order Province in Rome. In adoration of Our Lady and Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, he published three extensive spiritual works in Latin. His services to the order were honored in the Church of Santa Croce in Gerusalemme in Rome by a grave slab that identifies him as "Polonus Monachus Cister Doctrina Religione ac Humilitate", as well as the date and age of death (82).
