medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
There are a few pp on German Arianism in Thomas Burns, A History of the
Ostrogoths (Bloomington, 1984) and in Wolfram's History of the Goths
(Berkeley and L.A., 1987) but, as you say, nothing systematic. I don't have
a copy handy, but I should think that I Goti in Occidente - Problemi
(Spoleto 1956) might be worth a look.
