medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Monday's ODNB Life of the Day was Stephen Wright's biography of Richard
Pate (1516-1588), lawyer and refounder of Cheltenham grammar school
Not, strictly speaking, medieval or very religious but an interesting
description of someone who benefitted from the dissolution of monasteries
and chantries and then oversaw the reallocation of their property for other
'good works'
