A Dissenting Society: heresy, orthodoxy and rebellion in thirteenth-century Quercy

我的研究考察了政治和宗教异见的模式，后者通过阿尔比派十字军东征（1209-29）期间法国南部的Quercy县的“Cathar”和“Waldensian”异端来表达，并在1240年代反抗其北部法国胜利者。与政治联盟和宗教网络有关的文件，以及对天主教审判官的陈述，揭示了城市和农村社区，他们的领主，甚至他们的神职人员的党派参与，表明尽管地区性的坚持模式出现了，Quercy的社交圈既不是天生的“天主教”也不是“异端”。具有讽刺意味的是，正是天主教军队的军事占领导致了忏悔起义。

My research examines patterns of political and religious dissidence, the latter expressed through the 'Cathar' and 'Waldensian' heresies, in the southern French county of Quercy during the Albigensian Crusade (1209-29) and rebellion against its northern French victors into the 1240s. Documents relating to political alliances and religious networks, as well as statements made to Catholic inquisitors, reveal partisan involvement by urban and rural communities, their lords, and even their clergy, demonstrating that although regional patters of adherence emerge, Quercy's social circles were neither inherently 'Catholic' nor 'heretical'. Ironically, it was military occupation by Catholic armies that led to the confessional revolt.
