    Peter Abelard (1079-1142) was a French philosopher, considered one of the greatest thinkers of the 12th century. He fell in love with his pupil Heloise, the niece and pride of Canon Fulbert. They became lovers, and were secretly married. An outraged Fulbert exacted revenge on Abelard by having him castrated. Abelard entered the Benedictine Order, Heloise became a nun. Ten years lapse before they meet again, and it is this period of their relationship that the play addresses.
