The thirteenth century Italian chronicler Jacobus de Voragine was the author of The Golden Legend, a collection of 153 hagiographies, narrating the colourful adventures of Christian saints. The most widely read book after the Bible in the late Middle Ages, it recounts for the first time some of the most famous exploits of the saints, including the valiant St. George slaying the dragon, the life of St. Barbara and the legendary adventures of Mary Magdalen, among many others. In spite of its dubious historicity, The Golden Legend remains one of the most important sources for the analysis of Christian iconography, offering an invaluable window into the beliefs and spiritual wonders of the medieval world. Delphis Medieval Library provides eReaders with rare and precious works of the Middle Ages, with noted English translations and the original texts.
