medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

Hi Meg,


The Franz book is available from HathiTrust:
https://catalog.hathitrust.org/api/volumes/oclc/6808885.html

In general, you can often find the location of online texts from Worldcat.
Worldcat shows this book available in both Google Books and HathiTrust, but
Google does not appear to have anything more than information about the two
volumes.

Best,

Phil Feller
