'Heresy' literally means choice, and medieval heresy saw the birth of the modern consumer. This book presents a study, which places the rise and fall of the heresies of the central middle ages in their broader context. It argues that the emergence of heresy in the twelfth century reflected lay impatience with the monopoly of the medieval Church.

Exploring the relationship of heresy, dissent and society in the 12th and 13th Centuries,The Devil¿s World shows how people made conscious choices between heresy and orthodoxy in the middle ages and were not afraid to exert their power as ¿consumers¿ of religion. The book gives an account of all popular religious movements, looks at the threat that heresy presented to the Church and lay powers and considers the measures they took to deal with it.

Ideal for students of medieval and religious history.
