Abstract

This section presents an index of personal names that occur in the book Ritual Memory: The Apocryphal Acts and Liturgical Commemoration in the Early Medieval West (c. 5001215). The book provides an analysis of the liturgical celebration of the apostles in the medieval West and examines the incorporation of the apocrypha in practices of ritual commemoration. It also reveals the role that liturgy played in the transmission of the apocryphal Acts and visualises the way these narrative traditions developed and changed through their incorporation into a ritual context.Keywords: apocryphal Acts; apostles; early medieval West; liturgical commemoration
