The Early South English Legendary or Lives of Saints
Dr Carl Horstmann
- MS. Laud, 108, in the Bodleian Library. This work is considered one of the most important works of mediaeval literature. These legends represent the Christian mythology, as it had been formed in the course of centuries. The Collection contains sermons, or materials for sermons, for the Festivals of the year in the order of the Calendar, and comprehends not only Saints’ Lives for Saints’ Days, but also a Temporal for the festivals of Christ, and Advent and Christmas cycle, the Passion and an Easter cycle, and even, in some MSS., a Life of Christ compiled from the Gospels and Sunday lessons.
