Summary

Post mortem masses in late-mediaeval Navarre are grouped in various liturgical cycles that show the complexity of beliefs and devotions on the salvation of the soul: recent cycles (the novenas), monthly cycles, yearly cycles and perpetual cycles (anniversaries, chaplaincy) together with other devotional rites that enclose mystic and symbolic elements with deeply Christian contents (the Five Sores, The Seven Joys of the Virgin).
