1687 Golden Legend 1^ed Voragine Sermons Legenda Aurea Medieval Saints Bible 2v

Jacobus Voragine was a 13^th-century chronicler who is primarily remembered for his writing of the most famous religious work of the Middle Ages, “Legenda Aurea”. Also known as the “Golden Legend”, this work is a collection of biographical sketches of the most important Medieval saints. He wrote on their miracles, their sermons, and even allegorical stories of the saints.

This collection of Voragine’s works includes his writings of the saints, as well as sermons that parallel the “Legenda Aurea”. The first volume of this 1688 edition includes sermons on the virgin Mary and Jesus Christ’s Passion. However, the “Aurea” itself contains countless biographies of famed figures including:

• Biblical Figures
  • God, the Trinity
  • Mary Magdalene
  • Mary, mother of Jesus
  • John the Baptist
  • Paul the Apostle
• Saint Martin
• Dionysus
• Saint Michael
