medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Piggy-backing onto Meg's query, has anyone any good suggestions for how to translate 'preposito'? It's the term used for the head priest of a 'prepositura', and as I understand it that's a clerical community in a privately-founded institution. I've been using 'provost' but am open to better suggestions.
