medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear All
Marjorie's generous offer would provide us with a wonderful resource. It
goes much further than my compilation of Carolyn and George's lists,
available, along with a number of links to other on-line inventories, at
http://www.le.ac.uk/elh/grj1/ssaints.html
This is not to be confused with the TASC dedication inventories, which
are at http://www.le.ac.uk/elh/grj1/tasc.html
Apropos of which, Maddy's kindly inquiries allow me shamelessly to plug
the appearance (at long last, sigh!) of _Saints of Europe: Studies
towards a survey of cults and culture_ (Shaun Tyas, 1 High Street,
Donington PE11 4TA, UK, ISBN 1 900289 57 1, £35), in which seventeen
contributors review sources for dedication research from Iceland to
Egypt and Spain to Finland.
My present, highly enjoyable job is as research assistant in a project
to map forests and chases. No, not hagiographic assembly, Maddy, but
Giles, Leonard and John the Baptist are continually before me to guide
my cursor. Yet another excellent set of non-random distributions.
All the best
Graham

Wasn't Graham Jones working on something along these lines? (Graham -
are you out there? how's the new job? have you time to spare for
hagiographical assembly these days?)
