medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I think the pairing of Peter and Paul is a large and intriguing theme
that would be worth pursuing. They still have a joint major feast,
although a commemoration of Paul has been observed on the day after.
I have seen evidence of Clement being regarded by some as Peter's
immediate successor.
