medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture As well as Ann Matter's book already recommended by Vadim, Denys Turner's *Eros and Allegory: Medieval Exegesis of the Song of Songs *(1995) is a wonderful resource, both for his study and the accompanying anthology. I used to teach some classes on the Song of Songs in medieval mysticism. Often enough there was some surprise at the eroticism of this tradition, but in one particular semester I had a class that responded very negatively: they felt that these writers had "hijacked" erotic language to which they were somehow not entitled. -- Paul On 29 August 2015 at 04:30, Vadim Prozorov <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture > Steve, > > I've never read courses at the US universities.
