Heliose and Abelard

Sobre el llibre Heliose and Abelard de James Burge publicat per Profile al 2003:

Anthony and Cleopatra, Romeo and Juliet -the names of Heloise and Abelard, legendary in their own lifetimes, stand beside those in the register of "great lovers". Butwho are they? Drawing on new scholarship and a newly-discovered exchage of letters, James Burge sets out to discover the lives of two people whose writings have given posterity an almost miraculous widow onto their thoughts and feelings. Even though they speak to us from 900 years ago, the candour and passion of the couple give them a humanity which is instnantly recognisable today.
