Medieval Graffiti

The Lost Voices of England's Churches

by Matthew Champion

Drawing on the Norfolk Medieval Graffiti Survey, which he directed, Champion presents the thousands of inscriptions and drawings scratched into English parish churches. Ships, prayers, memorials, games, compass-drawn circles and protective symbols are set in their religious and social context, with a careful discussion of which marks may have been apotropaic.
