A Glimpse at the July/August 2010 Medieval Chronicle


Engaging, informatice and beautiful?  That is The Medieval Chronicle, of particular interest to "all lovers of Medieval Historical Novels, Medieval Mystery Novels, Medieval Romance Novels, Medieval Non Fiction."

Here is a glimpse at what you will find in the July/August 2010 issue., which will be available July 7th:

Nan Hawthorne introduces us to the Anglo-Saxon poet Cynewulf whose religious compositions survive today. Although he is known through his poetry his life remains "the shadow of a name." Did women have rights in medieval Scotland; did widow's? Amanda Scott takes us into the world of women rights and their property. Our medieval ancestors were most definitely moonstruck. Their lives were affected by the phases of the moon but as we find out from Nela Leja not in the ways you might think. A new and exciting recurring column To Reap the Harvest in Due Season by Nicole Zoltack begins. You will walk along side of medieval women as they go about their daily lives.

In And The Saints Go Marching… Denise Domning introduces us to Bridget of Sweden (feast day July 23rd) who was a mystic, founder of the Bridgettine Order and mother to a saint. Something in the DNA? Keeper of the Realm goes beyond medieval to look at King James VI of Scotland who became King James I of England. Marilyn J. Clay introduces us to the king who united two warring crowns.
