Medieval Christianity in Practice contains more than 40 medieval primary sources in modern English translation, each with an accompanying commentary by various scholars. Despite the title, it focuses just on Western Europe (so no coverage of Orthodox or Eastern Churches), from about 600 to 1500. It's a little bit of a grab bag, uneven in its coverage, and the comprehensiveness and length of the accompanying commentaries varies. However, it makes available for classroom use many kinds of sources that are often not available in translation—saint's lives like that of Stephen of Obazine (chapter 38) are more readily sourced than charms against infectious disease in sheep (chapter 9), although the latter kind of prayer probably played a more prominent role in the life of the average medieval peasant. Useful to pull selections from when teaching, but I wouldn't build a course around it as a main textbook. ( )
