medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Not a guy but a gal - what about your namesake, Margaret Clitheroe of York ?
IIRC her house in the Shambles is now a shrine and a place of pilgrimage.

medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I, too, have a student writing a paper, who is trying to identify a good
martyr to the Reformation ("one of those guys who hid in the priest holes
that they show you on tours of English manors" - well, at least she's been
to England!) Seriously, does anyone know of catholic victims of Reformation
violence who
1) are officially canonized, and
2) are the object of a cult about which some scholarly research exists?
I emphasize the cult: there has to be at least an altar, perhaps
canonization
proceedings (available in English), pilgrimage would be great . . .
actually even someone who was not canonized might be acceptable, if there is
a significant amount written about him/her. The point is for the student to
come to grips with some scholarly literature.
