The famous medieval historian Jacques Le Goff devotes an entire book to the phenomenon of purgatory. And this is no coincidence. Purgatory was formed gradually: initially as a belief in some possible atonement for sins after death, then as a belief in some special, middle, intermediate place where this atonement takes place. The birth of purgatory within the originally dualistic system of Christianity, which reshaped the entire geography of the other world, was a truly significant event. Le Goff explores the origins, the long process and the triumph of this birth. Third Place Part One.
