63 parts Complete A re-telling of the true 12th century love story of Heloise and Abelard. Abelard is a great philosopher and theologian who has taken, like many academics of the time, a vow of celibacy. When he is hired as a tutor for the brilliant and beautiful Heloise, whose mind he finds is his only true equal, a series of tragic events will spiral.
━━━━━━━┓ ✠ ┏━━━━━━━━
Taking place in the cloisters of Paris, the affair has grave consequences. They are forced into monastic life - Abelard becoming a monk and Heloise becoming a nun - but their relationship continues in secret. It continues mostly from afar, through a collection of the most beautiful love letters the world has known. They reunite only at the very ends of their lives and, eventually, are buried together in the Père Lachaise Cemetery of Paris.
The trials this couple face through the relationship that spans their entire lives, and their unending commitment to love in the face of all obstacles, continue to inspire us today.
