Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a biography of Abelard and Heloise, star-crossed lovers from the twelfth century. The author uses this personal narrative as a gateway into the broader historical and religious landscape of medieval Europe. The result is a fascinating and meticulously researched deep-dive into the lives of two of its most iconic figures. Readers learn about Abelard's rise to fame as a philosopher and theologian, the scandal that ensued when his affair with Heloise was discovered, their subsequent lives in monasteries, and the literary legacy they left behind. Along the way, the author also provides a vivid portrait of the social, political, and intellectual upheavals that were shaping Europe during this period, and how they intersected with the lives of Abelard and Heloise. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in medieval history, theology, or the enduring power of love. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
