Abstract

A profound link united Bible, heretics and inquisition, because both inquisitors and heretics were familiar to the BIble. In such a contest, women show a peculiar knowledge of the Holy Book and use it in a very specific way showing a difference in the reception compared to men. The presence of female religious preachers, for example waldensian preachers, confirm the use "on the road" of the Bible.
