| Abstract | The late medieval period presents a dynamic array of heterodox movements, dissident modes of thought, and ecclesiastical responses. Yet recent debates about the nature of heresy in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries have given the impression that the period after 1300 was merely an epilogue to the high medieval story, or a prologue to the Reformation. These sessions examine the history of heresy from 1300-1500 on its own terms, examining its political, intellectual, and religious contexts, and offering fresh insights into heresy and heretics in late medieval Europe. |
