In this history of heretical movements in Europe from the 12th . to the 15th c., the focus is on the medieval outlook, the place of the main heretical beliefs of the period within the context of the spiritual and intellectual climate, and the role of heresy as the "outlet of a society with no outlets." Leff surveys movements from the Franciscan disputes over the poverty of Christ to Wyclif, Lollardy and the Czech Hussite movement.
