Update

A small episode containing a big announcement.

The Jew Baruch recounts his forced baptism at the hands of the Pastoureaux.

Inquisition, Part 7: Stop Snitching

This is the epilogue to the episodes about Béatrice de Planissoles, in which she and other friends of ours return to denounce the archvillain--or hero?--Bernard Clergue. The material comes from the record of Bernard Clergue's trial in the Fournier Register. For some of the context, I am indebted to the incredibly detailed research of René Weis, whose book The Yellow Cross answered almost all my questions about the Fournier Register. Thank you to Professor Nancy Stork for her English translations of parts of the Fournier register, which you can find at the links below.

Inquisition, Part 5: Béatrice de Planissoles

We look at the record of one woman's inquisition and use at as a lens to consider Montaillou, a small village that remained a bastion of Cathar heresy a century after the Albigensian crusade tried to eliminate it.
