from the Storeroom :
Medieval Religion and
the Eucharist
This volume belongs on the shelf of any medievalist or student of theology - it is perhaps more enlightening for the 21st century than for the 13th century climate, since the pluralism of the latter was far more genuine and intelligent. Its humour and insight make it a pleasant dose of originality - and it is the first comprehensive study I've seen of this area. Special attention to the Franciscan theologians (who, in England particularly, were quite extraordinary - even Aquinas looks bland next to Bonaventure and Duns Scotus.)

Grace Jantzen

of vastly different mystics.

Rich sampler of Julian
of Norwich, Walter Hilton, the Cloud of Unknowing, and other mystics of
the fourteenth century - plus an introductory history, brief but excellent,
which is more enlightening than volumes on the subject.
