Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 1602 God Abandoned Son (5)

In the speeding carriage, Georgiana was reading a book.

Figel, who was wearing the uniform of a dragoon captain, surprisingly got along well with Matilda. They were discussing eagerly what clothes Georgiana would wear when they arrived in Rouen.

Georgiana had heard that the children were going to change into uniforms when the Hogwarts Express was about to arrive, and she felt that way now, except that she didn't have school robes in her suitcase.

The first image of a person is very important. If the first impression is sloppy, even if the appearance is well-dressed in the future, it will be difficult to give a good image in the future.

Georgiana still believes in Matilda's aesthetics, and these clothes have been matched by fashion designers in Paris, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Josephine's dressing style still maintains the extravagance and splendor of the Bourbon royal family. After all, the Viscount Beauharnay is Louis XV's tailor, and Georgiana's dressing is biased towards London's Dandy style. Although she didn't know why, the fashion industry in the 20th century seemed to think that it was fashionable for women to wear men's clothing, while Dante style advocated simplicity and refinement. This may be due to the influence of Protestant culture, just as Protestant churches are generally more fashionable than Catholic churches. simple.

The "book" she is reading now is actually a case file that Pope Benedict XII handled when he was a judge of the Inquisition in the pastoral mountain village of Montaiu when he was the bishop of southern France in the 14th century.

This case is far less famous than Salem, probably because no one died after the trial, and the so-called punishment was very light. Dozens of people were not hanged or burned like Salem, but this case lasted from 1318 to 1325 In 2011, there were 370 days of trials, 578 interrogations, 98 cases involved, and 114 people were prosecuted, which is not a small record. Georgiana has a thick stack of files in her hand, which is enough for her travel. Yes, anyway, she read these files as novels.

Education and way of life allowed farmers to have their own understanding of human beings. At that time, farmers believed that herders who graze could talk to animals, which was a manifestation of the devil and heresy. The vast majority of the people in the village of Montaiu are herders. Unlike farmers who were firmly imprisoned on the land by the feudal system, these herdsmen still had a certain degree of freedom and could live on water and grass. At that time, they were active in the Pyrenees.

Purity is very prevalent in Monjuta. The so-called Purity is the practice of complete asceticism. Everyone, regardless of gender, does not marry or have children, and maintains a virgin body, so that everyone can reunite in heaven as soon as possible.

In the farming era, the cost of raising children was low, but the income was high. That is to say, having more males can create wealth. In addition, the lords also need soldiers to fight. Therefore, the church advocates childbirth and prohibits contraception. However, most families in Montaiu have children with Basically, the cost of raising children is greater than the benefits, because a shepherd dog is enough to raise sheep and cattle, and if there are too many children, they need to be fed. The milk can be sold for money.

Raising children has become a non-economically rational thing. Under this social form and mode of production, wealth no longer flows from children to parents, but from parents to children. In addition, women are regarded as magical and menstruating. People, as the main component in the funeral, have to stand in front of the dying person, and they will dress up the deceased, cut hair, wrap the body, etc., and go to the funeral after the person dies. taller than one.

The local Puritans are strangely patriarchal. They try to make the funeral more masculine, so that there are not so many women crying. Funerals are usually only attended by men. Therefore, every time there is a funeral, the heretics of the Puritan will compete with the mainstream. Catholics make distinctions in the rituals of the funeral of the dead.

The Purists would persuade dying patients to fast in order to go to heaven as soon as possible. This is a very ancient way of suicide. Catholicism believes in the salvation of the soul, and the local heresy is very serious. For example, dead souls do not go to heaven, and old souls run around in the world. These old souls will enter the female body through a special channel and occupy those who have just conceived. Haven't gotten the soul body yet. If these wandering souls come from the innocent dead, newborns will be formed and old ghosts will be miscarried, believing that the villagers of the Cathars can guarantee that all fetuses are good, because they all have innocent souls and can obtain the mother's like.

Although faith does not allow children, people will always compromise with life, especially noble women, they must give birth to heirs for their married husbands.

These ladies usually choose contraception to achieve the goal of keeping their pure souls reincarnated as soon as possible. In this cycle, the herdsmen are relatively rich, and the population is small, so they are even richer. Otherwise, this parish would not be born. a Pope.

But the farmers in Monjuta will still have many children. In a pastoral economy, there is all the pastures needed for sheep. became a wealthy family. When their wealth accumulated to a certain level, they also changed from farmers to herdsmen, and then began to use contraception or anti-marriage like the Purists, thinking that having children is a loss of money.

At this time, the behavior of mothers changed. The first thing women in peasant families care about is milk. The income of farmers is relatively low. If peasant women do not have milk, their children will basically be unable to support them. Herdsmen families will hire nurses. Although milk can also be used as a substitute, drinking milk in this era is risky. Abraham Lincoln’s mother died after drinking poisoned milk, let alone the 14th century. Rich herdsmen can also hire someone As a nanny, at this time, the child's mother pays attention to the child's consciousness. It can be understood that she is observing whether the child's body is filled with an innocent soul.

The so-called maternal love for children and young children was still a new thing at the end of the Middle Ages. The Romans advocated infanticide, and children who were not healthy enough or born with disabilities would be discarded. Religion and secular culture were used in high society, such as royal families, nobles and The love for children cultivated in the bourgeoisie was slowly accepted by the peasants and other lower classes. Before that, they did not regard the life and death of a child and a baby as a major emotional matter.

It was also around that time that the image of the Virgin Mary became popular. Maternal love is noble and great, and worthy of praise. This social structure and behavior pattern is worth studying, so the future pope went to Montaiu himself after receiving the report.

The Inquisition not only imposed punishment, but also confiscated property, and even the children of Montaiu knew that if a person died and went to the cat priests, his property would be confiscated.

If they ask a dervish to preside over the funeral, their souls will not be saved, and the dervish will fill his stomach first.

Is it to protect the family property and not allow the soul of the deceased to be redeemed, or to save the soul and not to have the family property?

It was impossible to find a cathar priest for a secret funeral, and all the girls in the village were watching. On this point the competition between the Cathars and the Catholic clergy was fierce.

In order to pray for a good harvest, a considerable number of villagers in Montaiyu would ask the wizards for divination. These "wizards" copied the Koran by hand and sold them to those villagers as spells to make livestock prosper.

At that time, the villagers of Montaiu had no concept of the Crusades, and they even became the object of ridicule. Few people knew Latin, let alone Arabic. His Excellency, the Bishop, would not be able to do it for the sake of so few villagers. Go to war in ignorance.

The cause of the case was a brother named Jim Murray, whose whole family were Cathars, but he did a great thing, and he sued the curate Craig, saying that the priest used Corn paid an annuity to the Cathars.

Sentence and bribery could be punished by burning at the time, and heretics would also disguise themselves, such as drawing the cross before eating, or erecting a cross in the sheep market, but there is no "lamb" sculpture on the cross.

Heretics carefully hold religious ceremonies similar to those of the church. It is probably the first time the pope has seen this kind of reporting method. In order to get to the bottom of it, the future pope launched a detailed investigation. , almost turned Montaiu's secret upside down.

For example, those herdsmen who say they go to graze, they will live in small sheds on the mountain that are similar to Alpine cabins. Generally speaking, those who graze on the mountain are men, and the small shed is the property of men. The women at the foot of the mountain are responsible for taking care of the children. They had a tryst there with the prostitutes and mistresses who had heard the news. Georgiana took a breath of air just imagining the scene when the village was full of "stunts" practiced by women crying for graves after the report was published.

With power comes desire. No matter whether the priest is handsome, educated, capable, amiable, rough, clever, gentle, strong, or short, fat, wretched, as long as he is a priest, He will be favored by women.

The case of Pierre Craig, although extreme, is not typical, and "the priest's maid" and "the priest's woman" can be seen everywhere. The parish priest of Montaiu is an indicator. Even if Clegg is only slightly inclined to the Cathars, it will not be long before the majority of Catholic believers will break through all obstacles and follow those priests of the Cathars.

The curate is a center, Pierre Craig...

"Hey!"

She couldn't help screaming, because the file in her hand was taken away.

"Changing clothes!" Leon said impatiently while holding the file she was reading just now, and then threw it aside.

"Nerd." He whispered before leaving, the volume was not too loud, just enough for her to hear.

Georgiana stuck out her tongue at his back, and after he closed the car door, she asked Figel and Matilda to close the curtains of the car window, and changed clothes behind the hillside outside Rouen.

When I saw wizards actually have a godfather in Harry Potter, my expression was like this dad(д)

What's even more incomprehensible is how everyone didn't notice it?

The cathars existed before the days of the godfathers
