medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

Herewith a link to an earlier (2011) 'Feasts and saints of the day' for 29. July (including St. Martha of Bethany; Sts. Mary of Bethany and Lazarus of Bethany; Sts. Flora and Lucilla; Sts. Simplicius, Faustinus, Viatrix, and Rufus; St. Olaf of Norway; Bl. Urban II, pope):
http://tinyurl.com/d39mqqe


Further to Martha of Bethany:

In that previous post's notice of this saint, the link to expandable views of the later fifteenth-century (1472-1474) silver gilt hand reliquary of M. from the suppressed convent of Santa Marta in Venice, now in the Louvre, no longer takes on there. Use this instead (and the views are now in the fourth and fifth rows):
http://www.kornbluthphoto.com/Saints3.html

In the same notice, the link to the French-language description of that object no longer functions. Use this for an English-language description:
http://www.louvre.fr/en/oeuvre-notices/reliquary-hand-st-martha


Further to Mary of Bethany and Lazarus of Bethany:

In that earlier post's notice of these saints, for 'Herewith some views of L.'s church (Ayios Lazaros) at Larnaka in Cyprus' please read 'Herewith some views of L.'s church (Agios Lazaros) at Larnaca in the Republic of Cyprus'.
In the same notice, the first and the third links to exterior views of that church no longer function. Use this revised set instead:

In the same notice, for the view of L. portrayed as a bishop in a poorly preserved later twelfth-century fresco (ca. 1160-1180) in the church of the Holy Apostles at Pera Chorio please substitute this view of L. as depicted as a bishop in the late twelfth-century frescoes (1192; cleaned and restored, late 1960s and early 1970s) in the church of the Panagia tou Arakou at Lagoudera (Nicosia prefecture) in the Republic of Cyprus:

In the same notice, the link to a view of the Bethany trio arriving at Marseille (with others) as depicted by Giotto and assistants from the earlier (first quarter) fourteenth-century Mary Magdalen cycle in the Cappella della Maddalena, Basilica Inferiore, Assisi no longer takes one there directly. Use this longer one instead (click on the image to expand it):

In the same notice's section on the Raising of Lazarus, add at the outset this link to an English-language translation of a sermon thereon by St. John Chrysostom (_Hom. in Ioannem_, 62):

To the same notice's section on the Raising of Lazarus, Genevra Kornbluth posted these additions on 29. July 2011:
"I can offer some early images of the Raising of Lazarus:
http://www.kornbluthphoto.com/MiraclesChrist.html
end of row 2 (with link for other sides of the sarcophagus): an early 5th c. sarcophagus; I read the tree to the left (with bird) as a reference to the Tree of Life
end of row 4 (with link for other parts of the portable altar): the Arnulf Ciborium, c.890
also end of row 1: an abraded glass beaker, 4th to 5th c.; unfortunately when I photographed it years ago I was mostly interested in the technique of engraving (and film was expensive), so I got only Christ and not Lazarus. I was given a plaster cast by the curator in Toledo, which I will eventually photograph and post-- if anyone is particularly interested in this object, I can move that project up in the queue."

In the same notice's section on the Raising of Lazarus, at item c) (an eleventh-century fresco in church of Agios Nikolaos tis Stegis at Kakopetria in the Republic of Cyprus) for the view previously linked to please substitute this one:
