Without a doubt, "Stealing Heaven", the love story of Abelard and Heloise.
And I quote, "The story of Heloise and Abelard remains one of the world's most celebrated and tragic love affairs.
Abelard was a monk and key figure in the Twelfth-Century Renaissance. One of the most original minds of his day, the medieval university of Paris arose out of his fame as a teacher. It is believed that he was in his late 30's when his affair began with Heloise.
Heloise was Abelard's student and lover. She is believed to have been 16-years-old at the start of their affair.
They are buried together in Paris. It is said that never a day passes that fresh flowers are not found by their grave site. And flowers are placed by their effigies by Parisians on All Souls' Day.
Heloise said, paraphrase, that if she could not lay in his [Abelard's] bed in life, she would lay in his [Abelard's[ bed in death. They are buried in the cemetery of Mont Louis, also known as Pere La chaise, beneath a Gothic-style structure. The lovers share Abelard's original tomb, a sarcophagus brought from St. Marcel.
Marion Meade writes, "It is said that when her body was carried to the open tomb, Abelard who had died long before her, raised his arms to receive her, and so clasped her closely in his embrace."
