Two of the most notable figures from the Middle Ages -- the volatile, brilliant Abelard and the equally brilliant Heloise -- became the parents of their son Astralabe before Abelard's infamous, brutal castration. The couple spent the rest of their lives as monastics, in each other's orbits if not in shared presence, as they became movers in the glittering monastic world of the early twelfth-century France. What happened to their strangely named Astralabe? Astralabe: The Life and Times of the Son of Heloise and Abelard rescues the "lost son" from footnotes and fiction and attempts to tell instead the story of a real man living in Europe in the twelfth century. This book assembles the references to Astralabe, provides background in the history of France and Switzerland, uncovers Abelard's relationships with his family, with the ruling house of Brittany and more, and most importantly draws together all that is known of Astralabe.

This book offers a major reassessment of Peter Abelard's modal logic and theory of modalities, presenting them as far more uniform and consistent than was recognized until now. Irene Binini offers new ways of connecting Abelard's modal views with other parts of his logic, semantics, metaphysics and theology. Further, the work also provides a comprehensive study of the logical context in which Abelard's theories originated and developed, by presenting fresh evidence about many 11th- and 12th-century sources that are still unpublished. This analysis sheds new light on the relations between Abelard and ancient authors such as Aristotle, Boethius, and Priscian, as well as between Abelard and his contemporaries, such as Anselm of Canterbury, William of Champeaux, Joscelin of Soissons, and Alberic of Paris.

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.
