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
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.
