Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the legacy of Louis IX, king of France and canonized saint, this collection presents six previously untranslated texts that shape the medieval perception of him. M. Cecilia Gaposchkin includes early vitae, unedited sermons, and liturgical texts that reveal how Louis was revered for his virtues and deeds. This work contrasts with Jean of Joinville's more personal portrayal, offering a broader understanding of Louis as a saint within the historical context of sanctity at the end of the Middle Ages.
