Hardback. In the fourth century a new narrative genre captured the imagination of the faithful - the moving accounts of the lives of Christian saints. This work argues that the saints' stories of medieval Europe were more than edifying entertainment; they retain an alternative theology, often quite different from the formal theology of the Church. Translator(s): Todd, Jane Marie. Num Pages: 300 pages. BIC Classification: HRCM. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 239 x 168 x 28. Weight in Grams: 644.
