medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
"I would also agree that a new biography of Heloise alone is overdue, but
what about a [good scholarly or indeed any ] history of the Paraclete (which
was still a viable institution in the 18th C when it was forcible closed by
the Revolution.) which has yet to be written? I am amazed that feminist
scholarship has ignored this topic!"
Here, here! Even a bit of explanation sur place would be nice. Last time I
was there, happening upon the woman who owns/runs the basse cour now in the
area is the only way to get any sort of information. There are no pamphlets,
no guidebooks, no nothing. Those in the know go to the appropriate websites
in advance of a visit. Those not in the know come away empty-handed - or
-headed.
