medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear All,
The press coverage of the earthquake that struck L'Aquila (AQ) in Abruzzo this morning has of course focussed on the human loss (at least 92 reported dead). Not surprisingly, there has also been damage to the area's medieval monuments. Some of the affected churches are listed here:

These include Santa Maria di Collemaggio, the resting place of St. Peter Celestine (Celestine V); Santa Maria Paganica, and San Silvestro. Some views and brief, Italian-language accounts of these before the earthquake are here:
