Oh, fascinating; I need to start using those terms. This is one of the biggest problems in historiography, I think; it often doesn't handle premodern or…the experience of religion in the premodern, let me say, well at all, partly because historiography is a modern discipline. That being said, I don't think it's an excuse for this sort of failure at all; we can and should do better.
