medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Caro Claudio,
Your English is better than my Italian! No need to
apologize.
I share your belief that there are far more
similarities between medieval man and modern man than
not. This is an area in which I find modern psychology
very useful. Med. man had a psyche too! You might find
Regine Pernoud's _Pour en finir avec le moyen age_ an
interesting read.
Best,
MG
