Abstract

The Violence of the southern French Clergy during the First Crusade. In the XIth century the movement for church reform provoked a storm of new ideas which forced European elites to make ideological choices.

Later in the XIIth and XIIIth centuries these tensions gave rise to the great heretical movements.
