Dear All
I have a query on behalf of a friend and colleague, who is about 2/3 of
his way through his doctoral research. [It is not strictly speaking a
'religion' query, but you're all so well read and learned that I don't
think this will matter!]. Said friend is researching changes in castles,
and their sociocultural meanings; and has a problem with water (its
presence or absence). In any case, the big query is - does anyone know of
any modern scholarship to do with the medieval symbolism of water? _Any_
kind of water, not just castle-moat water...? If anyone out there can help, I
would be most grateful.
Please feel free to reply on or off list (but usually other listmembers
prefer on-list replies, so that they can add to their own bibliographies).
cheers
john arnold
