medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear Andre-Yves,
> 4°) Pierre de Dreux inherited the honour of Richmond (an earldom given to Breton ducal dynasty
> after the Conquest of 1066) : he has to give homage for this honour to the King of England ; but
> his predecessors have done the same.
Thank you for the correction; it was not Leicester; I was confusing him with the
Montforts!
> 5°) Pierre de dreux has a special devotion to Virgin Mary
He was the most substantial donor of stained glass to Chartres Cathedral, but there
are enormous problems concerning this donation. I'd be interested in knowing
about other evidence for this devotion to the Virgin.
Cheers,
Jim Bugslag
