The specific beliefs of the Albigensians and the Waldensians impacted on the medieval world of Christendom. These heresies resulted in the establishment of the Inquisition, whose purpose and method of procedure are outlined together with its controversial aspects. The survey concludes with a discussion of the penances and penalties: pilgrimages, wearing of crosses, confiscations, imprisonment, and the death penalty. An epilogue contrasts the 13th century mind with the world view of the 20th century, and how successive writers have differed so widely in their view of this Medieval Inquisition through the centuries, with a particular critique of Charles Henry Lea and Emmanuel La Roy Ladurie.
