Dear Sophie,
Last year at Kalamazoo, Christopher Crockett sold me a splendid
little pamphlet by Yves Delaporte, Le voile de Notre Dame (Chartres,
1927). For an exhaustive bibliography, see Jan van der Meulen,
Chartres - Sources and Literary Interpretation: A Critical
Bibliography (Boston, Hall & Co, 1989).
Cheers,
Jim Bugslag
