Augustine, De cura pro mortuis gerenda
CPL 307
Incipit: Diu sanctitati tuae...
Please note: I put this list together because I use the text in a course on Death in the Middle Ages. It is very preliminary and far from complete. Additions and corrections are always welcome.
If you use information from this page for your own research, please let me know so that I can add your publication to the list of literature on De cura pro mortuis.
