medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
To my knowledge, it is the North the "bad" cardinal point in medieval
thought (viz. Hildegard von Bingen). See my
"Ab Austro Deus. El trifronte barbado de Artaiz: un intento de
interpretación", -Príncipe de Viana-, LVIII (1997), pp. 483-495
also:
A. Paz Suárez-Ferrín, "Ab Aquilone Mors. Sobre la disposición del motivo de
la Muerte en el interior de las iglesias gallegas", Actas XIV Congreso CEHA
(Málaga 2002), in the press.
Have you got references to the West as a devilish cardinal point?
Best Regards
Carlos
