Abelard and Heloise Project

The Abelard and Heloise Project is an academic initiative that studies the lives, correspondence, and writings of Peter Abelard, a medieval philosopher and theologian, and Heloise, a talented scholar and his lover. It aims to preserve and analyze their historical letters and texts, providing insights into their intellectual partnership, personal relationship, and the broader social and religious context of 12th-century Europe. By doing so, the project enhances understanding of medieval scholarship, love, and the enduring influence of their ideas on philosophy and education.
