This book is the first major study in English of a group of late
twelfth-century religious enthusiasts, the early Humiliati, who
were condemned by the Church as heretics in 1184. However, in a
remarkable transition, they were reconciled seventeen years later
and went on to establish a highly successful religious order in
north Italy. The Humiliati have been accorded little attention in
previous studies both because of their local nature and because of
the suppression of the Order in 1571, after one of their number
made a disastrous attempt to murder Charles Borromeo. Using a
combination of a wide range of sources, the nature of the early
movement and its processes of institutional development are
reconstructed. The book also includes a Bullarium Humiliatorum, a
calendar of papal and episcopal letters and privileges, which will
be of great use to scholars in the field.
