medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
It is with regret that I note the following amendment to the programme for
May 12th:
‘Place-Names and History in South-West Scotland’
Daphne Brooke, who was to deliver this paper, has sadly suffered a stroke and
will not now be able to deliver it: Dr Thomas Clancy, University of Glasgow,
has kindly agreed to speak instead, using the same title.
We all wish Daphne a speedy recovery.
