medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Greetings: Over the course of decades, I've heard more than my fair share of contentions that references to belief in reincarnation had been erased from the Hebrew Bible and NT--no evidence, just statements. Please don't misinterpret my question as a variation on that overwrought theme. However, reincarnation or transmigration--as opposed to shape-shifting and avatars--is a persistent motif in medieval Irish literature. I'm wondering: is there evidence for this belief in non-Irish medieval materials? Any suggestions for further exploration would be most welcome!
