  • Perfect (also known as a Parfait in French or Perfecti in Latin) was the name given to a monk of the medieval French Christian religious movement commonly referred to as the Cathars. They were expected to follow a lifestyle of extreme renunciation and austerity from the world which included abstaining from eating meat and avoiding all sexual contact. By that virtue they were recognized as trans-material (ie spiritualized) angels by their followers, the Credentes (Croyant in French, Believers in English). Perfectii were drawn from all walks of life and counted aristocrats, merchants and peasants among their number. Women could also become Perfects; Female Perfects were known as Parfaites or Perfectae.
  • Een parfait was een kathaarse geestelijke. De Katharen (of Albigenzen) vormden een christelijke groepering in de late Middeleeuwen in het zuiden van Frankrijk en het westen van Duitsland. De naam is afgeleid van 'hereticus perfectus' zoals de Inquisitie hen noemde. Dat betekende (ver)volmaakte ketter, een kathaar die zich vervolmaakt had in de kathaarse leer.
