medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I couldn't find a reproduction quickly. But it appears from
http://www.gened.arizona.edu/aclassen/people.htm
(a dead link) that Prof. Albrecht Classen (German Studies, Univ. of
Arizona) posted a link to one on one of his web pages not too long
ago. Perhaps he also downloaded a copy.
Is the March man with the snake iconographically similar to Ophiuchus (a
late December constellation)? Could he have been transferred from one
end-of-the-year to another? Just a thought.
Best,
John Dillon
