medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and
culture
Doctissimi,
This is tangentially medieval and equally tangentially religious, but
if
someone would offer a response, I'd be grateful.
I just read that for the sacre of Charles VII of France, the Holy
Ampulla
had to be brought from Paris to Reims and I'm wondering why it was in
Paris
to begin with. Its proper resting place was the abbey of Saint-Remi not
far
from N-D de Reims. I'm guessing the turmoil of the 100 Years War had a
great
deal to do with this. But had the enemies of Charles "captured" it and
moved
it to Paris or had it been spirited there for safekeeping? Or had it
been
taken there to anoint Henry V?
More medieval history than medieval religion, but I thought I'd try.
Thanks in advance for any responses,
MG
