Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book engages with the medieval understanding of the Virgin Mary's miracles by examining a specific tale found in a multitude of medieval miracle collections. The story concerns a young scholar who habitually sang an anthem praising the Virgin Mary, greatly angering the Jewish community in his town. One day, a Jewish man lured the boy into his home and killed him, hiding the body beneath his floorboards. The Virgin Mary interceded, however, restoring the murdered boy to life and revealing the crime to the authorities. This book places this popular miracle within its historical context, demonstrating its prominence across a wide range of medieval miracle collections. The author traces the legend's development over time and discusses its various iterations, providing insights into the religious beliefs and values of the medieval period. Ultimately, this book contributes to our understanding of the role of miracles in medieval Christianity and the veneration of the Virgin Mary.
