medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear Sue,
Thanks! Do you have any sort of percentages? Part of the reason for this
request is to provide counter evidence for those who persist on catagorizing
saints according to their specialty!
Meg

medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
>Meg
I'm working on miracles of Thomas Cantilupe, b. of Hereford, and they
certainly include a fair number of rescues at sea. I wouldn't say
it's a "specialty", but it's certainly a significant minority of the
recorded miracles.
best wishes
Sue
