medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

When the heading "Oratio" occurs in a miscellany or in a collection of a
single author's work it is often best translated as "Prayer".  Unless
there's a contrary tradition in the case of Books of Hours, that's the term
I'd prefer there as well.  "Oration" suggests something longer and more
elaborate.  Best, John Dillon
