medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear friends and colleagues (apart from Bella: look away now!)
you may be interested to know that a festschrift in honour of Bella Millett
is to be published in December. Bella is best known for her work on the
thirteenth-century English book of advice for anchoresses, _Ancrene Wisse_,
culminating in the two volume edition for the EETS published recently. Her
wider field of interest includes pastoral literature, and this is reflected
in the festschrift, _Texts and Traditions: Essays on Medieval Pastoral Care
in Honour of Bella Millett_, ed. by Cate Gunn and Catherine Innes-Parker. I
include a list of contents below.
Anyone wishing to subscribe to the tabula gratulatoria (and receive the book
at a reduced price) should contact me for a form which needs to be returned
to Boydell & Brewer by 15th May.
Please feel free to pass this information on to anyone you think may be
interested.
thank you
Cate Gunn
