Books by Catherine Leglu

Samson and Delilah in Medieval Insular French investigates several different adaptations of the story of Samson that enabled it to move from a strictly religious sphere into vernacular and secular artworks.

A revisionist approach to Eleanor of Aquitaine and the political, social, cultural and religious world in which she lived.

This book brings together a rich and diverse range of medieval sources to examine key aspects of the growth of heresy and dissent in southern France in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries and the Church¿s response to that threat through the subsequent authorisation of the Albigensian Crusade.
