medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Dear List Members, A friend has, with considerable effort, restored and almost completed the refurbishing of a 12th century private house in France. An authentic 12th-century house blessing would be in order, but was there such a thing in this period for domestic architecture? There are rubrics for consecrating churches, blessing bells, etc., but does anyone know of an early house blessing? Or is this post-Reformation? --John Howe, Texas Tech ********************************************************************** To join the list, send the message: join medieval-religion YOUR NAME to: [log in to unmask] To send a message to the list, address it to: [log in to unmask] To leave the list, send the message: leave medieval-religion to: [log in to unmask] In order to report problems or to contact the list's owners, write to: [log in to unmask] For further information, visit our web site: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/medieval-religion.html
