medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I have to agree with this statement. I'll also add something medieval related.
I'm fascinated by the psychological dynamic, both in myself and in others, in which I find similar practices of a past era fascinating and the source of a great
deal of intellectual satisfaction to know, understand and appreciate, yet when faced with the same practices today, my response is rather less enthusiastic.
But then, I suspect that some of the things we do today will meet with similar responses from future generations.
And that's my final word on the subject ;-))
