medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Also, Jennifer Summit, *Lost property : the woman writer
and English literary history, 1380-1589* (U Chicago 2000)
has a chapter on the late medieval-early modern reception
of Christine, largely in England I think. Not sure whether
she discusses the Ditie, mainly because I haven't got round
actually to reading it yet.
