From: Laura Jacobus <[log in to unmask]> > Not sure how you'd feel about 'liturgical paraphernalia', but it's probably what I'd use. thanks, Stephen & Laura. "objects" would include the Holy Eucharist, would it not? "hardware" sounds kind of Rough & Ready. "paraphernalia" is illegal, at least in Southern Indiana. http://www.ai.org/legislative/ic/code/title35/ar48/ch4.html (IC 35-48-4-8.1-8.3) From: "Cormack, Margaret Jean" <[log in to unmask]> > How about "furnishings" instead of "furniture"? To me this could > include statues, chalices, altarcloths, the lot! Jon Canon suggested "furnishings" and, yes, it is somewhat all-inclusive. but is it better than the "furniture" which i seem to be adverse to? From: Thomas Izbicki <[log in to unmask]> > Not exactly useful in modern English, but: The medieval canon law tended to use the Latin vasa & vestimenta. i.e., as a phrase, "vasa & vestimenta"? which category do candlesticks fall into? or ornamented book bindings? >See the decretal Relinqui [X 3.44.2] in the Gregorian Decretals . i don't seem to have my copy of that to hand, Tom. what do modern priests call this, uh.... paraphernalia? thanks all. like i said, Picky, Picky, Picky. c ********************************************************************** 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 ********************************************************************** 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
