I am not asking peopel to do my work for me, just help me find sources. I have had barely any luck with this. I am doing a report for my reformation class about how the reformation caffected peoples attitudes about relics, saints, and miracles. I am also trying to find original sources. I am thinking maybe things by Marin Luther for a couple of them. Journals and things like that count too.


thanks.

You might want to try Ron Hutton's "The Rise and Fall of Merry England" which has a lot of material on religious festivals and how they were affected by the Reformation in England.

This is an "internet source" inasmuch as it is stored on the web, but all the material available on it is primary source stuff. It is by far the most useful historical reference on the net.

This particular link is focused on the Reformation, but for future reference, the ISB covers all eras and many, many cultures and topics.
