medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
> Another possibility is Milo Kearney, The Role of Swine Symbolism in Medieval Culture. Lewiston, N.Y., 1991.
>
> I have a look on "Mythologies du porc" published by P. Walter, Grenoble, 1999
> : in all the studies collected in this book, nothing is said about the origin
> of "cochon" ; but we can observe that in the medieval european glossary,
> there is no term related to "pig" or "sow" which could be linked to the word
> "cochon".
>
> My question remains : when "cochon" took the place of "pourcel", "goret",
> etc. : the terminus ad quo is 1091 ; but what's the terminus ad quem ? (time of
> bishop Cauchon seems to be too late).
> And what are the reasons of such a substitution ?
