Ebook: The Medieval Church: Universities, Heresy, and the Religious Life. Essays in Honour of Gordon Leff

Among the topics discussed are learned and popular heresy (Cathars, Wyclif, Lollardy, and the concept of heresy itself); the history of medieval universities and thought (including the religious at Paris and Cambridge, Ockham, and Paris theologians' views on the Jews); and early modern views of the crusades. The book is completed with a bibliography of works by Gordon Leff.
