The couple spent the rest of their lives as monastics, in each other's orbits if not in shared presence, as they became movers in the glittering monastic world of the early twelfth-century France. What happened to their strangely named Astralabe? Astralabe: The Life and Times of the Son of Heloise and Abelard rescues the "lost son" from footnotes and fiction and attempts to tell instead the story of a real man living in Europe in the twelfth century. This book assembles the references to Astralabe, provides background in the history of France and Switzerland, uncovers Abelard's relationships with his family, with the ruling house of Brittany and more, and most importantly draws together all that is known of Astralabe. Brenda M. Cook is a British independent scholar and retired librarian of the Institute of Archeology, University of London. 001481368 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001481368 60000 $$aHéloïse,$$dapproximately 1095-1163 or 1164$$xFamily. 001481368 60000 $$aAstralabe. 001481368 60010 $$aAbelard, Peter,$$d1079-1142$$xFamily$$1https://isni.org/isni/000000012102945X$$d1079-1142$$0(OCoLC)oca00373789 001481368 650_0 $$aMonks$$zFrance$$vBiography.$$0(DLC)sh 85017569 001481368 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001481368 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tASTRALABE.$$d[S.l.] : PALGRAVE MACMILLAN, 2023$$z3031320875$$w(OCoLC)1374295562 001481368 830_0 $$aNew Middle Ages (Palgrave (Firm)),$$x2945-5944 001481368 852__ $$bebk 001481368 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-32088-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001481368 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1481368$$pGLOBAL_SET 001481368 980__ $$aBIB 001481368 980__ $$aEBOOK 001481368 982__ $$aEbook 001481368 983__ $$aOnline 001481368 994__ $$a92$$bISE
