Religion Extended
Religion Extended contributes to discussions of aspects of religion that go beyond the epistemology of belief, incorporating other states such as understanding, emotion, knowledge of persons, knowledge-how, as well as practice.

She reconsiders key methodological concepts that tradit…
The Trials of Alice Perrers and William Langland’s Judgment of Mede the Mayde
