medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

Maddy,
There is lots of comparanda for the late Middle Ages in a brilliant 
study by James Marrow, /Passion Iconography in Northern European Art of 
the Late Middle Ages and Early Renaissance: A Study of the 
Transformation of Sacred Metaphor into Descriptive Narrative/ (Kortrijk, 
Van Ghemmert, 1979). 
Cheers,
Jim
