Aan het begin van de twaalfde eeuw beginnen Heloïse en Abelard een heftige en berucht geworden verhouding. Zij is een ontwikkelde vrouw uit Parijs, hij de beroemdste filosoof van zijn tijd. Na de rampzalige afloop van hun affaire komen beiden in een klooster terecht, waar ze ruim twaalf jaar later op de geschiedenis terugblikken in een aangrijpende reeks brieven. Heloïse doet een emotioneel appel op Abelard, maar wanneer dat zinloos blijkt legt ze zichzelf het zwijgen op en verschuift ze de aandacht. De brieven monden uit in een kwetsbare zoektocht naar betekenis en troost in het leven in een klooster, waarin de stilte die Heloïse heeft laten vallen blijft nagalmen. Is troost op afstand wel mogelijk? 00De brieven, waarin het persoonlijke en het intellectuele door elkaar lopen, vormen een van de absolute hoogtepunten in de Middeleeuwse literatuur. De psychologische complexiteit, open vragen en schrijnende contrasten tussen de twee personages maken dat dit unieke document nog steeds verbazingwekkend hedendaags aandoet.0.

The autobiographical and confessional writings of Abelard, Heloise and the Archpoet were concerned with religious authenticity, spiritual sincerity and their opposite - fictio, a composite of hypocrisy and dissimulation, lying and irony. How and why moral identity could be feigned or falsified were seen as issues of primary importance, and Peter Godman here restores them to the prominence they once occupied in twelfth-century thought. This book is an account of the relationship between ethics and literature in the work of the most famous authors of the Latin Middle Ages. Combining conceptual analysis with close attention to style and form, it offers a major contribution to the history of the medieval conscience.

Peter Abaelards Autobiographie, die Historia calamitatum, gehört zu den bekanntesten Texten des Mittelalters, insbesondere wegen der Liebesgeschichte zu Heloise, von der sie berichtet. In den letzten Jahrzehnten wurde über die Echtheit der Dokumente, die Abaelard und Heloise betreffen, so viel gestritten, daß die literaturwissenschaftliche Deutung des Werkes ganz in den Hintergrund trat. Aus dieser Sackgasse bietet das vorliegende Buch einen Ausweg. Es macht den berühmten Text zum Gegenstand einer Reihe exemplarischer Analysen aus der Perspektive von sieben verschiedenen Literaturtheorien des 20. Jahrhunderts (Rezeptionsästhetik, Foucault, Gender Studies, Rhetorische Stilanalyse, Literaturpsychologie, Kulturwissenschaft, Dekonstruktion). Diesen Analysen vorangestellt ist der lateinische Text der Historia calamitatum mit einer neuen, in modernem Deutsch gehaltenen Übersetzung. Damit wird die Historia calamitatum erstmals in einer zweisprachigen Ausgabe erschlossen. Peter Abelard's autobiography, the Historia calamitatum, is one of the best-known medieval texts, especially because of the story of his love for Heloise which it recounts. In recent decades, there was so much controversy about the authenticity of the documents concerning Abelard and Heloise that the critical interpretation of the texts was relegated to the sidelines. The present volume provides a way out of this impasse. In it, the famous text is subjected to a series of exemplary analyses from the perspectives of seven different 20th century literary theories (aesthetics of reception, Foucault, Gender Studies, Rhetorical Stylistic Analysis, Psychology of Literature, Cultural Studies, Deconstruction). The analyses are preceded by the Latin text of the Historia calamitatum with a modern German translation. This is thus the first time that the Historia calamitatum has been presented in a bilingual edition.
