The Waldensian Dissent: Persecution and Survival, c.1170-c.1570 (Cambridge Medieval Textbooks) Book

The Poor of Lyons, whom their detractors called 'Waldensians' --after the name of their founder Waldo (or Vaudès)--first emerged around 1170 and formed a sect which embraced evangelism, prophesy and poverty. By challenging prohibition by following the Scripture to the last letter, they were condemned as heretics.
