medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear Patrick,
I happen to have some references, but they are taken from second hands, so
that I cannot supply any synopsis or other insight. In addition to Matthews
already quoted by Dee Dyas I have:
BRANNER Robert
[on the labyrinth at the cathedral of Reims] in: Journal
of the Society of Architectural Historians 22 (1963),
p.18-25
HOWARD Donald R.
The Idea of the Canterbury Tales, U of California Press,
1976, p.326ss.
BATSCHELET-MASSINI W.
Labyrinthzeichnungen in Handschriften. In: Codices manu-
scripti 4 (1978), p.33-65
CIPOLLA Gaetano
Labyrinth: Studies on an Archetype. New York: LEGAS, 1987
BEAL Rebecca Sue
Dante in the Labyrinth. In: Mediaevalia 13 (1987 [1989]),
p.227-245
DOOB Penelope Reed
The Ideae of the Labyrinth from Classical Antiquity through
the Middle Ages. Ithaca / New York / London: Cornell UP,
1990, xviii+355 pp.
There is also an article on labyrinths by F. Cabrol and H. Leqlerq in the
_Dictionnaire d'arche'ologie chre'tienne et de liturgie_, t.VIII (Paris
1928), 973-982. Doob is probably the right thing to start with.
Best wishes,
Otfried
