Then why do you want to know?

Because learning does not consist only of knowing what we must or we can do, but also of knowing what we could do and perhaps should not do.

Umberto Eco, The Name of the Rose

[hamletofficial]

I read that quote by Umberto Eco about how the first hundred pages of The name of the rose are a sort of penance, and so I had braced myself for some boring or dense chapters but I'm on page 50 right now and I'm living.

Like, a clue under seal of confession? Theological discussions? Apocalyptic visions? A labyrinth library that is almost definitely alive? Sign me the fuck up!

“Will you tell me, William, you who know so much about heretics that you seem one of them, where the truth lies?” “Nowhere, at times,” William said, sadly. “You see? You yourself can no longer distinguish between one heretic and another. I at least have a rule. I know that heretics are those who endanger the order that sustains the people of God. And I defend the empire because it guarantees this order for me. I combat the Pope because he is handing the spiritual power over to the bishops of the cities, who are allied with the merchants and the corporations and will not be able to maintain this order. We have maintained it for centuries. And as for the heretics, I also have a rule, and it is summed up in the reply that Arnald Amalaricus, Bishop of Cîteaux, gave to those who asked him what to do with the citizens of Béziers: Kill them all, God will recognize His own.” William lowered his eyes and remained silent for a while. Then he said, “The city of Béziers was captured and our forces had no regard for dignity of sex or age, and almost twenty thousand people were put to the sword. When the massacre was complete, the city was sacked and burned.” “A holy war is nevertheless a war.” “For this reason perhaps there should not be holy wars.”
