medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
John: I am a little confused now. I thought the PL was available through
Chadwick-Healey. Does Brill now own this? The Brepolis packet includes the
Corpus Christianorum and a numebr of other databases. One of the problems is
the cost of these databases, which made the library of my home institution
(Calvin College) decide they could only afford one but not both. I've sent many
"begging letters to my university library", Laura, or rather, talked to the
director, but the answer is usually No. And I can't blame them. With the number
of potential users on campus (a handful), it is not a very cost-effective
investment. Brepolis is well beyond reach of small to mid-size institutions. It
makes me all the more appreciative of a resource-sharing list like this one !

If your library has a subscription to Patrologia Latina (through Brill),
Niermeyer is also available (it is the “Lexicon” item on the main menu of the
PL home page.

Brepols has an online collection of databases (Brepolis), one of which is the
Database of Latin Dictionaries, in which you can simultaneously search a number
of Latin dictionaries (antiquity, patristics, medieval: including Forcellini,
Lewis&Short, Blaise, DuCange, Stelten and others – but not Niermeyer). However,
your library needs to have a subscription. You can find more information here:

Thanks Paul. A salutary reminder that it gets too easy to rely on my home copy
of Niermeyer Minor. It serves me well for most things but I really should have
trooped off to a library and looked at a few more dictionaries before asking
the list, Still dictionaries don't come up with such stimulating and valued
opinions as does this list, and I've found all comments helpful.
Thanks again

Laura, here are the entries for your key words from Albert Blaise, Dictionnaire
latin-français des auteurs chrétiens (Strasbourg: Le Latin chrétien, 1954;
repr. Brepols, 1993:
remedium, -ii, n., 1. secours : Evgipp. Vit. p. 47, 6 — 2. remède (pr. et fig.,

offices liturgiques : ea quae in officiis ecclesiaslicis celebrantur, Isid.
Eccl. off. 1, praef. (dans le livre II, il s’agit plutôt du sens 4; office, au
sens de ordo, semble postérieur).
Most of Blaise's examples are probably earlier than you want, though he is
useful enough for patristic usage. As for cultus and officia, FWIW I think I
would translate "worship", and "offices" or "services", distinguishing between
the general and the particular. -- Paul

Many thanks for all these suggestions. I too had been inclined to think of
'remedium' as referring to those already in purgatory, but the idea of a
two-stage process towards salvation hadn't occurred to me. Forgive me if I'm
wrong, but all of you sound as if you're guessing (no slur intended, especially
as that's all I'm doing myself)- but if you have a medieval parallel or source
in mind please do let me know. Otherwise I'll just go for a translation that
leaves both possibilities open.
No-one took me up on the possible distinctions between 'divine cult' and
'divine office'.... any offers?
