Title : Le Lettere di indulgenza per la Scuola delle Quattro Marie di Milano [the Scuola delle Quattro Marie, a Milanese confraternity, is little documented before the 14th century; at that period an altar of the Four Marys can be identified in the old cathedral which honored the Virgin, her supposed sisters, and the Magdalene; but no chapel of that name existed there or in the new cathedral in the Middle Ages; the surviving indulgences document the transformation of a group of "raccomandati della Vergine Maria" into a formal "scuola" or meeting at the cathedral; this development coincided with the stabilization of the Visconti regime; the article concludes with critical editions of the four indulgence letters].

Title : And After All, Myn Aue-Marie Almost to the Ende: "Pierce the Ploughman's Crede" and Lolland Expositions of the "Ave Maria" [the author uses two Lollard commentaries to explain the objections to the "Ave Maria" prayer presented in "Pierce the Ploughman;" not only did Lollards object to the additions of words to the Bible text, but they were also opposed to the indulgences promised for reciting the prayer and their connections with the Pope; in an Appendix the author reproduces an indulgence on the "Ave Maria" in Middle English from Cambridge, Trinity College, MS R.3.21, fol. 216v].

Title : Orazione e pittura tra "propaganda" e devozione al tempo di Sisto IV: il caso della Madonna della Misericordia di Ganna [once Sixtus IV issued a decree favoring the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception, texts and images favoring that doctrine proliferated; some texts, genuine or spurious, promised indulgences to the devout; and they featured excerpts from Leonardo Nogarolo's office for the feast of Mary Immaculate; the image of the Madonna della Misericordia at Varese is such an image; the church also features the monogram of the Name of Jesus popularized by the Franciscan Observants; the entire complex benefited from patronage by the Sforza family].
