medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear Suzanne:
Concerning the influence of Vitry's sermons on popular
culture, I suggest you the well-known "Exemplum de Aristotile et uxore
Alexandri" and its representation in art. The classic starting point is, of
course, J. Adhémar, _Infuences antiques dans l'art du Moyen Age français_
London, Warburg Inst, 1939. Susan L Smith, _The Power of Women. A Topos in
Medieval Art and Literature_ Pennsylvania UP, 1995 devotes some pages to the
topic.
For what its worth...
Carlos
