| Popis | Our paper focused on the Cathar initiation ritual, the Consolamentum, comparing two main primary sources (which are recorded in handbooks used by dissident communities) - Ritual of Lyon, Ritual of Florence; and the most important polemical sources written against heresy or in inquisitorial records: i.e. the descriptions in Bernard Gui’s Practica inquisitionis, Anselm of Alessandria’s Tractatus de hereticis, the Opusculum Ermengaudi, and the Forma qualiter heretici hereticant hereticos suos. To facilite their analysis, we identified the intermediary concepts that are the building blocks of the ritual, revealing its internal logic and serving as the basis for sequence analysis. By using sequence analysis, we were able to measure the distance between the various descriptions, so that the common building blocks of the ritual could be outlined and variation more clearly expressed, identified and measured. |
