The enthusiasm of the first readers made The Legend of the Saints by Jacques de Voragine The Golden Legend: that of all the stories surrounding the exemplary life and death of Christian saints of the first millennium after Christ and from the beginnings of the Middle Ages.
The author has collected the scattered facts from a multitude of scattered writings, chronicles and biographies, not to tell "what really happened", but to edify, by the magnificent example of the saints, of their words of fire and their miracles, those who want to follow Christ. Today, The Golden Legend is also an extraordinary naive “anthology”, rich in history and culture, because it has inspired many Christian artists.
