The Journal of Religious History recently published a special issue on the topic of Cathar Heresy.
This collection of articles provides evidence of the very vigorous study of medieval dualism, Manichaeism, and Catharism in southern France currently taking place in Australia.
Some contributions are by experts in their fields (Cassidy-Welch, Pegg), others are by experts in other fields whose interest in these topics is considerable (Davidson, Zlatar), and others are by graduate students and early career researchers (Chenu, Chiu, Debergue).
