[DCRM-L] Genre for a manuscript

[Jane Stemp Wickenden]

That sounds interesting Dawn;

I am guessing that beating the bounds on the feast of Corpus Christi 
(the Thursday after Trinity Sunday) features in the text.  It still 
happens; I have seen the procession round St Giles' parish, Oxford, 
although I believe that they no longer knock a choirboy's head against 
the boundary stone to make the point.

Can't help with the genre term, but perhaps a look into DCRM(MSS) will help.

Best regards,

Jane
