Choose one or two of the letters of Heloise and Abelard at the link here. What did you find particularly interesting in these letters? Does anything particularly surprise you?
What i found interesting that stood up to me was "The tension between these two poles generates a huge amount of emotional electricity." I found this sentence in one of the paragraphs that caught my attention. These tow people were in love and created a family and even went through some troubles from outsiders that were hurtful. The Letter written really showed the love Abelard had for his wife Heloise and really brought out emotions most people back then didnt realize they had.
What I found interesting was the love Heloise has for Abelard. But Heloise uncle didn't like Aberlard and he told his manhood. Abelard writes a letter about how she discouraged marriage. I was also surprised when Heloise became a nun because of Abelard.
