Michael Frassetto's account of five centuries of social and
spiritual turmoil is a vivid and telling mix of events, personality
and ideas. His cast of characters includes Bogomil, an obscure
priest of the Balkan countryside who introduced 'Manichaean' ideas
to his parishioners; Henry the monk, the first true heresiarch, who
eluded his captors and prepared Languedoc for the Cathars; Valdes
the rich merchant who renounced worldly goods to found the movement
that would evolve into the Waldensian Church; Pierre Autier, last
of the Cathar 'perfects'; and John Wyclif the gentle Oxford scholar
who with his disciple the Czech priest Jan Hus - the first
disinterred from his grave in an English country churchyard, the
other burnt as an urban spectacle - heralded the Reformation. This
is history replete with passion, terror and hope, a key to the
heart of medieval Europe.
