medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear List,
Does anyone happen to know what the nine alien sins are or where I could
read about them?
They apparently show up in a late medieval sermon collection along with
other lists like the Ten Commandments, the seven deadly sins, the seven
sacraments, the six works of mercy...
So says Anne Thayer in _Penitence, Preaching and the Coming of the
Reformation_ Ashgate 2002, p.23. The work she is discussing is Johannes
Herolt's _Sermones discipuli de tempore et de sanctis_.
thanks in advance,
Sara McDougall
