medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Today's Oxford DNB's Life of the day is Alan Borthwick's biography of James
II (1430-1460), king of Scots. Not much religion apart from promotion of
bishops and attitudes to the Council of Basel but very medieval with plenty
of machinations and murder.
To read this and other lives of the week, follow the links below.
