Reviews
On Sep 28 2007, DrMarianneDorman said:
Helen Waddell has shared her love of the medieval world when she wrote this revealing book of not only of the love between Peter Abelard and the young Heloise but of insights into the politics of the church in the 12th century. For anyone who loves literature and has a sense of the spiritual will enjoy this book on Peter Abelard.
