medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
BTW Carlos,
I was looking at some of the images from the Aachen
Gospels late last week and came across the image of
Otto III. He is portrayed as being crowned by God
whose hand descends from heaven to touch Otto's head;
of more interest to this discussion though is the fact
that the four evangelists represented in their animal
forms surround him and hold a canonpy over his head.
Thought you might be interested.
