Subject: RE: Folklore: Cunmar the Accursed (Brittany)
Someone must know... anyone? Refresh.
BTW, I already searched for "Conomor/Comorre/Comor and Trephine/Triphine/Trephina legend werewolf" and "Cunmar the Accursed Bluebeard werewolf" and every other term possible related to this topic, and came up with more variants of the legend, but I don't need the legend anymore. Also most of the sites on the legend rarely talk about the werewolf aspect. I've done some research on werewolves in general and also found out that the French werewolf "loup-garou" is defined as someone under a hereditary curse, and that one cause of the curse is if a person misses Mass for 24 days, and so that's seen as a divine punishment. However, Marina Warner apparently does mention the werewolf aspect.
