Housed in a custom quarter-leather clamshell case.<br/><br/>The "Golden Legend" was extremely popular in the late Middle Ages not only on the Continent but also in Britain. Caxton printed an illustrated edition of his own translation in 1483 later reprinted by Wynkyn de Worde. But the English had to turn to copies printed abroad for the original Latin texts; as a result a number of Continental editions with early English provenances are recorded. "Depicting the lives of the saints in an array of factual and fictional stories The Golden Legend was perhaps the most widely read book of its time after the Bible during the late Middle Ages. It was compiled around 1260 by Jacobus de Voragine a scholarly friar and later archbishop of Genoa whose purpose was to captivate encourage and edify the faithful while preserving a vast store of information pertaining to the legends and traditions of the church" Princeton. Even today scholars of the period recognize it as a key Medieval text across fields in the humanities. "Art historians depend on it. Medievalists should know it inside out.For the rest of us it remains a treasure house of European culture crammed full of the things which everyone once upon a time used to know" Malcolm.<br/><br/>BMC I p 135.
