Book Synopsis Saving the Souls of Medieval London by : Marie-Helene Rousseau
Book excerpt: St Paul's Cathedral stood at the centre of religious life in medieval London and this investigation of its chantries - pious foundations through which donors endowed priests to celebrate intercessory masses for the benefit of their souls - sheds light on the role chantries played in promoting the spiritual well-being of medieval London.
