You might also consider a topic on illuminated manuscripts. John
Williams is currently engaged in publishing an extensive corpus of
manuscripts of Beatus' commentary, and there is some quite new work
being done on illuminated French and English Apocalypse manuscripts
from the 13th and 14th century. I believe Suzanne Lewis may have a
new book out on this topic. If your students can read French, they
might be able to tackle, as well, the remarkable Angers Apocalypse
tapestries.
