Théologien, logicien, dialecticien, musicologue, Abélard reste un grand savant dont l’œuvre mérite d’être étudiée et enseignée. Neuf cents ans après sa mort, sa pensée, ses travaux, les polémiques savantes qu’il a nourries avec les grandes voix de son temps continuent de fasciner les chercheurs et les érudits. Le présent recueil marque sur plusieurs points une étape nouvelle dans la connaissance de cette haute et célèbre figure. Il ouvre sur des aspects historiographiques usuellement traités, mais jamais épuisés, des perspectives et analyses originales. Par exemple, mais non uniquement, sur l’environnement historique, scolaire et religieux d’Abélard, sur sa philosophie. D’autres thèmes y sont considérablement approfondis, voire renouvelés : ainsi, les relations affectives et spirituelles à l’intérieur du couple atypique qu’Abélard forme avec Héloîse, sur sa relation paternelle à Astralabe. Une extension du dossier épistolaire y est proposée. Un ensemble de communications consacre aux planctus et aux poèmes liturgiques d’Abélard des analyses stylistiques et musicologiques. Né en 1079, au Pallet, à vingt kilomètres de Nantes, Abélard n’a jamais renié, ni même oublié ses attaches bretonnes, comme en témoignent plusieurs de ses écrits. Et même si l’essentiel de sa carrière s’est déroulé hors de Bretagne, tout justifie sans doute que se tienne à Nantes la grande conférence internationale dont ce livre constitue l’utile prolongement.

It was an affair that developed into a vigorous quarrel and raised fundamental questions about love, marriage, and religious life, and also provided a uniquely valuable illustration of the intellectual and religious ferment that is called the Renaissance of the twelfth century. Abelard was the leading philosopher of his time and a very public figure in France, as well as being a fiercely attacked theologian and unpopular abbot. Heloise, his brilliant pupil, lover, and wife, also became a nun and abbess, much against her will. She provoked this brilliantly written correspondence which is widely regarded as one of the finest literary compositions of the twelfth century. These letters have for many centuries given enjoyment to their readers and have inspired numerous creative imitations. They have also given rise to huge disagreements over their historical content and significance. Readership: Historians and students of medieval culture, religion, and thought; readers interested in medieval women writers; historians of medieval schools and universities and of medieval monasticism Edited by David Luscombe, Emeritus Professor of Medieval History, The University of Sheffield Translated by the Late Betty Radice, Formerly Honorary Fellow of St Hilda's College, Oxford, and former vice-president of the Classical Association, and revised by David Luscombe David Luscombe studied and taught in the University of Cambridge and was Professor of Medieval History in the University of Sheffield until 2003. Publisher's note. The collection opens with an autobiography which contains the story of the calamities that followed Abelard's successes - his castration, his condemnation for heresy, and the unhappiness of the couple's separation. Heloise's letters show an exceptional outpouring of grief and bitter recrimination. Yet the correspondence closes with thoroughly serious, scholarly, and original enquiries into the origins and development of pagan, Jewish, and Christian ideals of religious life both male and female. It constitutes a fundamental source for discussion and debate about important features of thought and religion in the Middle Ages. A new critical edition based on all the manuscripts has long been needed. Its appearance here with a facing English translation, a full introduction, extensive annotation taking into account recent scholarship, and detailed indexes will enable all kinds of readers to enjoy the letters and to join the debates which they always stir. Highlights: --A much needed new, critical edition of one of the most celebrated love affairs in western history --A central point of reference and enquiry into the European Renaissance of the Twelfth Century --Exposes keen rivalries among leading scholars and churchmen in twelfth-century France --Richly informative about lively debates between scholars in the twelfth century --Aids understanding of medieval love and marriage --Reveals the enormous grief of an unwilling but very wise abbess; provides keen insights into medieval literary artistry --Includeds invaluable documentation concerning female monasticism in the Middle Ages. The collected letters of Peter Abelard and Heloise provide an extraordinarily vivid account of one of the most celebrated love affairs in the western world.
