HEIRIC OF AUXERRE
(841–ca. 876). A student of Lupus of Ferrières and Haimo of Auxerre, Heiric taught
Remigius of Auxerre and was a disciple, if not a student, of Johannes Scottus Eriugena.
Heiric was one of the major authors who transmitted the ideas of Eriugena to later
generations. He was the first master to cite the Periphyseon, and one of his homilies
makes use of Eriugena’s homily on the prologue to John’s Gospel. Heiric may have
composed a set of glosses, reflecting ideas from Eriugena, on the Categoriae decem.
Heiric’s Collectanea contains a set of extracts from classical authors and a set of
questions concerning problems of scriptural exegesis. He represents an important link in
the intellectual traditions of the 9th-century schools and exemplifies the combination of
interests in classical literature, biblical exegesis, and philosophical questions in that
period.
