The Incredibly Rare Highly Influential and Entirely Spurious Letters of Heloise and Abelard. William Levitan in his recent translation ABELARD & HELOISE. THE LETTERS OF . discusses the printing history of these letters pointing put that although they are almost entirely "impostures" and have little to do with the original Latin from which they purportedly derive they nonetheless "came to have a decisive role in how Abelard and Heloise were understood for well over a hundred years. John Hughes' English translation of these into English became the standard in the English-speaking world and even as late as 1940 editions of the English versions appeared. Alexander Pope based his famous "Eloisa to Abelard" on Hughes translation Jacques Alluis' account of the tragic legendary love affair between Peter Abelard - the preminent scholastic theologian of his day - and Heloise his brilliant pupil was first printed in 1675. In 1695 publisher Pierre Chayer began to issue separately the three letters to Abelard from Héloïse and the three to Héloïse from Abelard; of the six only the first letter had been printed before in 1693 by Chayer; he also reprinted Jacques Alluis' account of the tragic affair in uniform format with separate title-pages and pagination. Their correspondence is or purports to be one of the great series of love letters in the Western world and although Chayer issued a collected edition later in the same year with a new preface from the printer this is a bound collection of the separate parts as they first appeared in French. Each bears the imprint of Pierre Chayer Amsterdam 1695. Unless otherwise noted they are firsts. They are as follows in the order of binding; 1.
