> Actually, Michael Clanchy (Abelard - 1997 - page 191) speculates that
Abelard and Heloise might have been married in this chapel - lovely
thought - since he (MTC)also suggests that S de G was A's patron and - wait
for it - the Friend to whom the Historia Calamitatum was initially and
primarily addressed.
thanks for this, Brenda.
i am late in respondng because this post was shunted automatically into a
folder i check irregularly.
yes, Stephen's "patronage" of A is quite documentable --though i can't recall
the source off hand just now.
Stephen is a curious figure, painted Black by the Bernardin sources but
clearly a bit more nuanced than that in reality.
