medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture A couple of additions to Julian's reply to Meg's question. A very detailed examination of St. Gall calendars is Emmanuel Munding, Die Kalendarien von St. Gallen aus 21 Handschriften neuntes bis elftes Jahrhundert, 2 vol = Texte und Arbeiten herausgegeben durch die Erzabtei Beuron, I. Abteilung, Hefte 36 & 37 (Beuron in Hohenzollern, 1948-51). If I remember correctly Munding attributes at least one of the texts he studies to Reichenau. Also, in addition to his book on calendar reform, Arno Borst has a massive three-volume edn of calendars in Der karolingische Reichskalender und seine Ueberlieferung bis ins 12. Jahrhundert, MGH, Libri memoriales 2 (Hanover, 2001). Best, John On Mon, 5 Jun 2006, J.
