medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear Eleanor
Forgive me if you have already tried this, but, as it is a relatively recent
book, why don't you write to the publishers, Boydell and Brewer, and ask
them to pass your query on to Carole Hill? Or you might be able to contact
her through the University of East Anglia where she did the PhD on which the
book is based?

Dear John
Many thanks. I have seen the Morgan one you mention. The one I am
interested in has the shrouding image as the main image of the
illumination, which is unusual. It also seems French in its colouring-
lots of blues and dark red.
Regards
Eleanor
