The Mediaeval Monk
Medieval Monks, Magic, and More
I’m Viktor Athelstan and welcome to The Mediaeval Monk. This blog is dedicated to medieval monasticism and magic, but occasionally I write about other topics too.
Each blog post includes a bibliography/works cited section. Even though my blog is more casual than an academic blog, citing your sources is a vital academic practice. (It is plagiarism not to do so!) It’s necessary to see where people are getting their information. Plus, if you find my posts interesting, the bibliography will make it easier for you to do further research.
