A salutary reminder that it gets too easy to rely on my home copy of Niermeyer Minor. It serves me well for most things but I really should have trooped off to a library and looked at a few more dictionaries before asking the list, Still dictionaries don't come up with such stimulating and valued opinions as does this list, and I've found all comments helpful.

Most of Blaise's examples are probably earlier than you want, though he is useful enough for patristic usage. As for cultus and officia, FWIW I think I would translate "worship", and "offices" or "services", distinguishing between the general and the particular. -- Paul On 28 May 2013 03:59, Laura Jacobus <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> wrote: medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Many thanks for all these suggestions. I too had been inclined to think of 'remedium' as referring to those already in purgatory, but the idea of a two-stage process towards salvation hadn't occurred to me. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but all of you sound as if you're guessing (no slur intended, especially as that's all I'm doing myself)- but if you have a medieval parallel or source in mind please do let me know. Otherwise I'll just go for a translation that leaves both possibilities open. No-one took me up on the possible distinctions between 'divine cult' and 'divine office'.... any offers?
