 A Bibliographical Review of Historiography on Gottschalk   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Gottschalk der Sachse, arguing that Gottschalk was less obstinate than often presented, voluntarily returning to the monastic state at Orbais, for example, rather than being forced, and (again) going on his Balkan mission before the predestinarian controversy erupted, rather than trying to flee persecution.
  Nineham also takes this "conservative" approach, arguing from Gottschalk's willingness to take trial by ordeal, as well as his appeal to the pope and his support from leading Carolingian theologians, that Gottschalk was convinced of his Catholic orthodoxy—as well as of Hincmar's heresy as a deviant from Catholic religion.
Nineham (p.3) notes that Hincmar was technically acting beyond his jurisdiction in confining Gottschalk, since such matters lay under the jurisdiction of the bishop, not the archbishop.

 Grace: Chapter Twelve
The theologians who have written on this subject generally concede that grace is a participation in Deity as it is in itself, objectively (inasmuch as it disposes us radically to see it).
These theologians deduce therefrom that grace is subjectively a participation in the divine nature as imperfectly conceived by us, as one (not as triune) and as subsistent intellection.
It is true that these ancient theologians are divided on the secondary question of explaining how grace is efficacious of itself; some have recourse to the divine motion known as physical premotion, others to a predominating delight or some similar attraction.

Whatever criticism may be leveled against Reformed theologians, they were determined to forge their theology from Scripture, and Paul especially served as the chief source of their doctrine of predestination.
Reformed theologians knew the writings of all of the major fathers, both Greek and Latin, but it was Augustine who occupied first place in the pantheon of fathers.
Although Vermigli's primary inspiration came from Augustine, he went beyond his mentor in his interpretation of Paul's predestinarianism.17 The explanation for this intensified Augustinianism is found at the University of Padua, where as a student Vermigli first read and appreciated the robust Augustinian theology of Gregory of Rimini.

Gottschalk of Orbais and Hincmar of Rheims, who fought over predestination in the 8th century, were both mistaken about Augustine’s own understanding of “foreknowledge.” As well, a key source for understanding “Semi-Pelagianism,” the decrees of the Second Council of Orange in 529, were unknown to most Western theologians until the time of Thomas Aquinas.
