Richard (died 1173), the renowned regular canon and magister of the abbey of St. Victor in Paris, wrote the treatise De Trinitate where he tried to provide the necessary reasons leading to the acknowledgement of the rationality of these articles of faith concerning the domain of the immanent Trinity which transcends the human intellect and the possibility of predication. The fundamental point consists of the concept of love. He develops all his trinitarian theology out of this as well as his interesting and valuable theology of the third person in the Trinity. The Holy Spirit is reflected as an “insurer” of the most supreme love between divine persons, as a Condilectus he presents a completion and the last origin of the communion of love (communio amoris). As an Amor debitus he represents an antipole in opposition “dare–accepisse” to the person of the Father. In this manner, Richard expressed extremely successfully a legitimate alternative to Augustine’s concept of the fundamental relationship in the Trinity (Father–Son). Richard justifies this concept of the Holy Spirit as Donum with “infusio debiti Amoris” which is a mission of the Holy Spirit. However, he does not deal with the question as to whether it is possible to conceive the Holy Spirit as a Gift in the immanent Trinity.
