Produktbeschreibung
This collection of writings about Saints was written in Italy in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. Here translated into English and in full for the first time, they shed light on the ways in which both lay men and women sought God in the urban environment, and how they were understood and described by contemporaries. The book will be welcomed by students and other readers interested in medieval Italian cities during this period of growth and vitality, and in how the religious life was lived in urban settings.
This book offers full translations of the Lives of seven saints (five men and two women) who lived in Italian cities between about 1150 and 1315. It will interest both students and other readers curious about medieval Italian history and about medieval popular religion and sainthood.
