5 Ambrose of Milan so identifies it in his commentary on the Corinthians passage (PL, XVII, 323). The prevailing view is summed up in the Liber de virtutibus et vitiis ad Widonem comitem, attributed to Alcuin (PL CI, 635): ‘Tristitiae duo sunt genera: unum salutiferum, alterum pestiferum. Tristitia salutaris est, quando de peccatis suis animus contristatur peccatoris, et ita contristatur, ut confessionem et poenitentiam agere quaerat, et converti se ad Deum desideret. Alia est tristitia huius saeculi, quae mortem operatur animae, quæ nihil in bono opere proficere valet, quae animum perturbat, et saepe in desperationem mittit, ut futurorum spem abstollat bonorum.'

63 WA XL, 2 Abt., 391; Pelikan, XII, 355. It should be noted that Luther's anti-rationalism applies only when regnum Christi is under consideration; reason's proper sphere is regnum mundi. When reason trespasses into the spiritual realm it wants to be justified by the Law, and the impossibility of this leads it logically to despair. See B. A. Gerrish, Grace and Reason: a Study in the Theology of Luther (Oxford, 1962), chs. 5-7. The influence of Lutheran anti-rationalism is strikingly illustrated in a Dutch woodcut of the prodigal son (c. 1540), which shows him rioting with such bad company as Mundus, Caro, Vanitas, Avaritia, Heresis—and Ratio (Samuel C. Chew, The Pilgrimage of Life, New Haven, 1962, fig. 77).

77 Chapter xxxiii, verses 10-12, provides a summary of God's pleas: “Tu ergo, fili hominis, die ad domum Israel: Sic locuti estis, dicentes: Iniquitates nostrae et peccata nostra super nos sunt; et in ipsis nos tabescimus; quomodo ergo vivere poterimus? Die ad eos: Vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus, nolo mortem impii, sed ut convertatur impius a via sua, et vivat. Convertimini, convertimini a viis vestris pessimis; et quare moriemini, domus Israel? Tu itaque fili hominis, die ad filios populi tui: Justitia justi non liberabit eum, in quacumque die peccaverit; et impietas impii non nocebit ei, in quacumque die conversus fuerit ab impietate sua.'

78 ‘Tunc videns Judas, qui eum tradidit, quod damnatus esset, poenitentia ductus retulit triginta argenteos principibus sacerdotum et senioribus dicens: Peccavi tradens sanguinem justum’ (Matt, xxvii, 3-4).

88 For example, he cites against despair the examples of Zacchaeus and Matthew, but follows them with the opposite fates of Ahab, Judas, Ananias, and Sapphira, ‘ut per illos desperationem ejiciamus, per hos vero socordiam exscindamus, neque supinus sit animus ad monita qua; prsescribuntur’ (Horn. XI in i Corinth.; PG LXI, 94). The ideal of the middle way between despair and presumption appears elsewhere in his homilies on the epistles: PG LXI, 75; PG LXII, 396, 447-448.

89 Moralia, II, 1 (PL LXXV, 555). This is an unusual use of David, whose story is usually advanced as an argument against despair. For the fear-hope balance, see also later sections of the Moralia: PL LXXVI, 139-140, 495-496, 570, 686-688.

93 Tractatus qui vocatur Templum, B.M. MS. Harl. 3244, fol. 142'. The via media notion was less popular with the Reformers, being antithetical to the complete commitment of evangelical faith. Calvin's mixture of joy and sorrow (Inst., m, 2, 17-18) sounds like Augustine's fear-hope balance, but in fact he explicitly rejects such an interpretation as a 'pestilent philosophy’ (24). Calvin's idea is not of a balance but of a root-branch relationship. Fear may nip at the twigs and keep them pruned, but the root of hope remains untouched.

94 Serm. L de diversis (PL CLXXXIH, 673). Bernard's exposition recalls Cicero's Tusculanae disputationes, iv, 6, which also treats the four basic emotions (in this case libido, laetitia, metus, and aegritudo), the virtues that result from their proper ordering, and the perturbations that arise from disorder.

Aside from the treatises on melancholy, most Renaissance discussions of suicide contribute little to the problem, being concerned with motives other than despair of salvation—social benefit, mundane adversity, personal honor. But it is noteworthy that Donne, Montaigne, and the commentators of the Geneva Bible all felt it necessary to point out that the suicide under discussion was not caused by despair (Donne, Biathanatos, facs. of ist ed., New York, 1930, pp. 27-29; Montaigne, Essais, ed. Albert Thibaudet, Paris, 1950, II, 3, 398; Geneva Bible, 1570 ed., gloss on Judges xvi. 30). In the popular mind, suicide was the result of despair.
