medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
From: Rosemary Hayes-Milligan and Andrew Milligan
> I sent Brenda Cook's note referring to St Albans from the discussion on
representations of Januarius on to a friend who is a lay canon of St Albans
with a great interest in its building - and thought his responses, from the
point of view of one living daily with the fabric, might be of interest.
> It's certainly a reminder to academics that identification may not always
have been precise, even originally.
"even originally"?
what a curious concept.
> http://www.shipoffools.com/Mystery/2007/1453.html [a report of a service
with Desmond Tutu presiding]
with respect to the former ArchBishop, there is much more of interest on that
site than his 12 minute ruminations on Alban's martyrdom.

with the Promise of *more* to come
"COMING SOON! A 7-inch screw in a cardboard box, to remind you of what George
Bush and Tony Blair are doing to the Middle East!"
these Albanites are definitely on the Cutting Edge of the New Religion.
