South English Legendary

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The South English Legendary is a Middle English (13th to 14th century) legendary, best preserved in MS Harley 2277 and CCCC 145, which contain 92 lives. The collection is so comprehensive as to include lives of "anti-saints" Judas and Pilate.
