Summary

Professor Spence starts with the 1244 fall of Montsegur, which most history books note as the Cathars' last stand as an organized movement. Yet, as Professor Spence demonstrates, this influential group shows up over and over throughout history. See how the Cathars inherited and adapted much older beliefs, and how they undoubtedly influenced other groups to come.
