medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Apologies for cross-posting.
Would anyone be able to recommend to me a dictionary of mediaeval Latin? My
classical Latin dictionary is no use for this, as you will know better than
I... I don't want the equivalent of the OED, just a handbook kind of
thing...
And, in the meantime, can anyone say why 'mansa' would be translated as
'manor' rather than 'dwelling'? It is in an English document which may be tenth
century, or thirteenth. Depends whether it was forged or not. The
translation is modern.
