Father Louis Jacques Bataillon (1914-2009)’s philological body of work has had a profound impact on Medieval Studies in general and Philology in particular. His elaboration of key notions such as that of the original, the considerable range of textual traditions that he examined, his unparalled mastery of editorial techniques - honed within the framework of the Leonine edition of Saint Thomas Aquinas -, and his exceptional knowledge of Europe’s great manuscript collections, all establish Father Bataillon’s corpus of works as an indispensable reference for all philologists. RésuméL’œuvre philologique du Père Louis Jacques Bataillon (1914-2009) a profondément marqué les études médiévales en général et la philologie en particulier. L’élaboration de notions-clefs telles que celle d’original, la grande variété de traditions textuelles étudiées, la maîtrise hors pair des techniques d’édition élaborées dans le cadre de l’Édition Léonine de Saint Thomas d’Aquin, ainsi que la connaissance exceptionnelle des fonds manuscrits les plus importants d’Europe, font de l’œuvre du Père Bataillon une référence incontournable pour tout philologue.
