Monodies and on the Relics of Saints: And, On the Relics of Saints : the Autobiography and a Manifesto of a French Monk from the Time of the Crusades
Abbot of Nogent-sous-Coucy Guibert
Offers insights into medieval society. This title recounts Guibert of Nogent's early years, monastic life, and the bloody uprising at Laon in 1112, lets us witness a world populated by royals, heretics, nuns, witches, and devils, and helps us to understand just how fervently he was preoccupied with sin, sexuality, the afterlife, and the dark arts.
