回应阿伯拉尔的《我的灾难史》:婚姻之前的爱、行为之先的意图——并请求一部适合女性的修道规则。
立场
Héloïse’s letters, written in reply to Abelard’s “History of My Calamities”, are both an account of a woman’s inner life and a work of moral argument. She insists that she never sought marriage or security but Abelard himself, and would rather be his “whore” than empress; love, she argues with Cicero and Seneca, is worth nothing if it seeks a reward. On this basis she states a strict ethics of intention: God weighs not what is done but the spirit in which it is done, so she cannot pretend to a repentance she does not feel. Abelard’s “Ethics” later developed the same principle. Most scholars now accept the letters as authentic.
生平与背景
Héloïse (c. 1100–1164), niece of a canon of Notre-Dame in Paris, was famous for her learning before Peter Abelard became her tutor around 1115. Their love affair, her pregnancy, a secret marriage and Abelard’s castration by her uncle’s men ended with both taking religious vows. From about 1129 she was abbess of the Paraclete, the convent Abelard had founded, and corresponded with him; she died in 1164.
