Book Synopsis Heresy and Authority in Medieval Europe by : Edward Peters
Download or read book Heresy and Authority in Medieval Europe written by Edward Peters and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2011-09-22 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the Middle Ages and early modern Europe theological uniformity was synonymous with social cohesion in societies that regarded themselves as bound together at their most fundamental levels by a religion. To maintain a belief in opposition to the orthodoxy was to set oneself in opposition not merely to church and state but to a whole culture in all of its manifestations. From the eleventh century to the fifteenth, however, dissenting movements appeared with greater frequency, attracted more followers, acquired philosophical as well as theological dimensions, and occupied more and more the time and the minds of religious and civil authorities. In the perception of dissent and in the steps taken to deal with it lies the history of medieval heresy and the force it exerted on religious, social, and political communities long after the Middle Ages. In this volume, Edward Peters makes available the most compact and wide-ranging collection of source materials in translation on medieval orthodoxy and heterodoxy in social context.

Book excerpt: The Cathars are one of the most famous heretical movements of the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries. They infiltrated the highest ranks of society and posed a major threat not only to the Catholic Church but also to secular authorities as well. The movement was finally smashed by the crusade and the inquisitional proceedings that followed. This new study is the first comprehensive history of the Cathars. It addresses major topics in medieval history including heresy, orthodoxy and the Crusades as well as providing a history of the social and political history of Languedoc and the rise of the Capetian dynasty. A fascinating study of the development of radical religious belief and its violent suppression.

Book Synopsis Heretics and Scholars in the High Middle Ages, 1000-1200 by : Heinrich Fichtenau
Download or read book Heretics and Scholars in the High Middle Ages, 1000-1200 written by Heinrich Fichtenau and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The struggle over fundamental issues erupted with great fury in the eleventh and twelfth centuries. In this book preeminent medievalist Heinrich Fichtenau turns his attention to a new attitude that emerged in Western Europe around the year 1000. This new attitude was exhibited both in the rise of heresy in the general population and in the self-confident rationality of the nascent schools. With his characteristic learning and insight, Fichtenau shows how these two separate intellectual phenomena contributed to a medieval world that was never quite as uniform as might appear from our modern perspective.

Download or read book Power & Purity written by Carol Lansing and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1998-02-12 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catharism was a popular, if bleak, medieval heresy that held that the creation of humankind was a disaster in which angelic spirits were trapped in matter, and their only goal was to escape through purification. Power and Purity explores the place of cathar heresy in the life of the medieval Italian town of Orvieto. Based on extensive archival research, it details the social makeup of the Cathar community and argues that Cathar beliefs about the body addressed questions of sexual difference and the structure of authority that were central to medieval Italian life. This detailed microhistory will appeal to medieval historians and scholars of religion and gender studies.

Book Synopsis The Trial of Jan Hus by : Thomas A. Fudge
Download or read book The Trial of Jan Hus written by Thomas A. Fudge and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-04-30 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Six hundred years ago, the Czech priest Jan Hus (1371-1415) traveled out of Bohemia, never to return. After a five-year legal ordeal that took place in Prague, in the papal curia, and finally in southern Germany, the case of Jan Hus was heard by one of the largest and most magnificent church gatherings in medieval history: the Council of Constance. Before a huge audience, Hus was burned alive as a stubborn and disobedient heretic. His trial sparked intense reactions and opinions ranging from satisfaction to accusations of judicial murder. Thomas A. Fudge offers the first English-language examination of the indictment, relevant canon law, and questions of procedural legality. In the modern world, there is instinctive sympathy for a man burned alive for his convictions, and it is presumed that any court that sanctioned such an action must have been irregular. Was Hus guilty of heresy? Were his doctrinal convictions contrary to established ideas espoused by the Latin Church? Was his trial legal? Despite its historical significance and the controversy it provoked, the trial of Jan Hus has never before been the subject of a thorough legal analysis or assessed against prevailing canonical legislation and procedural law in the later Middle Ages. The Trial of Jan Hus shows how this popular and successful priest became a criminal suspect and a convicted felon, and why he was publicly executed, providing critical insight into what may have been the most significant heresy trial of the Middle Ages.

Book Synopsis The Language of Heresy in Late Medieval English Literature by : Erin K. Wagner
Download or read book The Language of Heresy in Late Medieval English Literature written by Erin K. Wagner and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-04-22 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vernacular writers of late medieval England were engaged in global conversations about orthodoxy and heresy. Entering these conversations with a developing vernacular required lexical innovation. The Language of Heresy in Late Medieval English Literature examines the way in which these writers complemented seemingly straightforward terms, like heretic, with a range of synonyms that complicated the definitions of both those words and orthodoxy itself. This text proposes four specific terms that become collated with heretic in the parlance of medieval English writers of the 14th and 15th centuries: jangler, Jew, Saracen, and witch. These four labels are especially important insofar as they represent the way in which medieval Christianity appropriated and subverted marginalized or vulnerable identities to promote a false image of unassailable authority.
