Courtly Love

Meer over het boek

Exploring the origins of courtly love, the book traces its roots back to the great mother goddess, revealing a complex interplay between spirituality and sexuality. It challenges the common perception of these relationships as purely platonic, arguing that beneath the elegant poetry of troubadours lies a rich tradition of sexual initiation akin to Indian Tantra. This examination unveils the deeper, often overlooked dimensions of love and desire in medieval culture.
