Jestice To: [log in to unmask] Sent: 01/12/2004 22:07 Subject: [M-R] medieval monsters medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Colleagues: To bother you with one more question: A student of mine is working on an honors thesis that involves medieval attitudes toward monstrous and subhuman races, and is currently looking for evidence of the later medieval scholarly/clerical view on the subject (broadening her search from the starting point of medieval Alexander romances). Can anyone recommend any books/articles on the subject? Preferably in English, but she can get through some German. Thanks, Phyllis -- Dr. Phyllis G.
