medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
In the diocese of Bath and Wells, Yatton, Croscombe, Bridgwater, and St.
John's Glastonbury all own legenda--with the saints unspecified. In St.
Margaret's Westminter, the parish has a printed life of St. Katherine
bequeathed by Caxton (a parishioner).
