| Summary |
Alexander Murray has long had an intellectual interest in the history of religion - struggling between his inbuilt anti-clericism and his pronounced monastic leanings. The five essays in this book take on this dialectic, addressing the difficult relationship between private conscience and public authority in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. |
