medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

Hello Madeleine,

Elaine Bloch has been working on taking a large inventory of  
misericords from across Europe for the past decade; it is an enormous  
collection, not just Britain. However, I doubt you will find it on  
line, as she is an elderly scholar. She has articles, an  
iconographical encyclopedia as well printed about this corpus...Colum  
Hourihane at the Princeton Index might know where to locate some of  
this material if you don't find it in WorldCat. Hope this helps,  
Harriet.

> Is this a reflection of reality, or am I looking in the wrong place?
> (The colleague's main interest is in grotesque and subversive
> misericords, broadly defined - animals preaching, overturning of social
