medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Re: history of ars moriendi
I think that this was mentioned before, but there is a (albeit old) book called:
     The Art of Dying Well: the Development of the Ars Moriendi by O’Connor, Mary C.  New York: Colombia University Press, 1942.


and a “newer” one: The craft of dying; a study in the literary tradition of the Ars moriendi in England, by Nancy Lee Beaty, New Haven, Yale University Press, 1970.

medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Hello,

Although there was a little discussion a while ago, I still have a question about the Ars moriendi-books: is there a study, a book a dissertation or something like that called The history of Ars moriendi books? Or Ars moriendi throughout the centuries? Or All the ars moriendis ever written and printed? If such a study does not exist, who on the list wants to wright it?

Greetings,

Bas Jongenelen
