The earliest inquisitions took place in Languedoc in the 1230s and 1240s. Of the records they generated, nearly half of them survive only in seventeenth-century copies: these are edited, translated, and annotated here for the first time. These records are fundamental for the investigation of early inquisition. They provide us with invaluable evidence not only of inquisitors’ questions and methods, but also of the lives, conversations, and views of the women and men of Languedoc. Volumes 2 and 3 contain the fourth of the five medieval registers edited here.
