Description

La Légende dorée fut l'ouvrage le plus lu et le plus diffusé au Moyen Age, juste après la Bible (on en connaît 1000 exemplaires manuscrits conservés, contre 150 exemplaires seulement pour le fameux Livre du Graal). L'ouvrage doit d'ailleurs son titre actuel à son succès, les tranches dorées étant précisément réservées aux livres les plus importants de l'époque. Découpée en 178 chapitres, cette "légende des saints" (son titre originel) constitue en fait une encyclopédie de la vie chrétienne - le terme "légende" devant être compris comme "ce qui doit être lu" (par les prédicateurs, dans les écoles ou pendant les repas dans les monastères). Néanmoins, le merveilleux s'y fait très présent, selon la tradition des apocryphes chrétiens, friands de fantastique et de miraculeux. Outre les vies des saints (le sanctoral), l'ouvrage s'attache à expliciter le sens des grandes fêtes chrétiennes (le temporal). Cette édition de la Pléiade constitue la première traduction intégrale en français, à partir d'un manuscrit latin authentique et complet. Elle est illustrée de plus de 150 bois gravés tirés d'éditions des XV ? et XVI ? siècles, et complétée par un index des noms et un index des notions.
