The Medieval Cult of Saint Dominic of Silos

"This study examines the rise to prominence of one of the most important of saints' cults in Medieval Spain and its development throughout the Middle Ages. It interrogates neglected texts such as the late eleventh-century Vita Dominici Exiliensis and the late thirteenth-century Miraculos romancados (as well as artistic representations and works written outside Silos), and places the more widely known Vida de Santo Domingo by Gonzalo de Berceo ([died] c. 1260) in a new light by firmly fixing its presentation of the saint within the development of the cult."--BOOK JACKET.
