This work is followed by The letters of Abelard and Hlose, a series of correspondences between the renowned philosopher and a highly educated woman. Publisher Description "The story of this philosophical soldier of fortune is a romance from beginning to end, a poignant human drama shot through with passion, adventure, pathos and tragedy. In a sense it is an epitome of the earlier Middle Ages and through it shines the bright light of an era of fervid living, of exciting adventure, of phenomenal intellectual force and of large and comprehensive liberty. As a single episode of passion it is not particularly distinguished except for the appealing personality of Hlose; as a phase in the development of Christian philosophy it is of only secondary value. United in one, the two factors achieve a brilliant dramatic unity that has made the story of Ablard and Hlose immortal." - Ralph Adams CramPeter Abelards "Historia Calamitatum" (The Story of My Misfortunes) is an autobiographical work written in the 12th century.
