Eloisa and Abelard is a work by Régine Pernoud that narrates the real story of two exceptional figures, whose love was cut short by fate. Despite their separation, they left a legacy of letters that transcend time. Pedro Abelardo, philosopher and key figure in the history of philosophy, is known for his book 'Sic et Non'. However, his fame was consolidated thanks to his relationship with Eloisa, a woman of great intellect and passion, whose love sacrificed everything. This work explores passion, philosophy, faith and reason in the context of the University of Paris of the 12th century.
Régine Pernoud was a French historian and archivist. Pernoud was one of the most prolific medievalists in 20th century France; more than any other single scholar of her time, her work advanced and expanded the study of Joan of Arc.
