« back to classes page
Abelard and Heloise lived 900 years ago, but their love story has survived the ages. Abelard was a famous professor at the Paris Notre Dame cathedral school. Heloise was a young scholar who, as a woman, was denied the right to attend classes. These two medieval scholars’ search for knowledge led to tragedy. Why was a beloved professor attacked? How did Heloise spend most of her life in a convent? Join us for some answers and surprises.
