[All]: Cf. Canticum Ade pro se et generacione sva ‘Canticle of Adam for himself and his progeny’ in the Meditaciones Vite Christi of Iohannis de Caulibus (Stallings-Taney 1997, 316-17; Taney 200, 297). The poet imagines the joy and relief experienced by Adam as he sees the undoing of the universal curse for which he is responsible. The theme of the typological relationship between Adam and Christ stems from Paul’s theology: et sicut in Adam omnes moriuntur ita et in Christo omnes vivificabuntur ‘and as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all shall be made alive’ (1 Cor. XV.22).
