Summary "L'eresia nel Medio Evo" by Felice Tocco is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work delves into the complex relationship between scholastic philosophy and the heretical movements of the Middle Ages, focusing primarily on the emergence and evolution of various sects deemed heretical during that time. Tocco refrains from being a simplistic history of heretical figures; instead, he seeks to analyze the philosophical underpinnings and societal implications of these religious movements. At the start of the text, Tocco reflects on his studies regarding the connections between scholastic thought and contemporary heresies. He acknowledges that while he set out to document a comprehensive historical narrative of heretics, he instead formed a distinct opinion regarding the origins and development of the myriad heretical sects. The opening introduces the idea that the Middle Ages, often wrongly considered an era of harmony, in fact witnessed intense ideological struggles mirrored in the conflicts between different philosophical schools. Tocco expresses his intention to explore these tensions, particularly through the lens of heretical groups such as the Cathars, illustrating their beliefs, origins, and impact on the religious landscape of the time.
