Research Abstract |
This study concerns the relationships between the Cathars, urban communes and the Church in the northern and central Italy during the 12 and 13 centuries. It explores these relationships within political and social circumstances, and in so doing, clarifies the variety of forms and meanings of the Cathar heresies, moreover,of attitudes and policies against these heresies. In this report I present some of results that my research have produced for further study. They are divided into three parts. In the first chapter I consider the methodological problems in approching the problem of heresy as the power process. In so doing I debt to articles of an anthropologist, Taal Asad in many ways.In the second chapter I discuss the developments of technologies of power by the Inquisition against the backgrounds of general trends in the later Middle Ages. In this point I especially consult the study which recently J. Given has done in this field. Finally, I consider the Italian Catharism from the viewpoint of the relationship between the sacred and the authority. C. Lansing's analyses concerning the case of a Tuscan city Orvieto are particularily illuminating in this respect. Although these results are limited, I can establish the frames within which further study should be done.
