About This Book

Una raccolta di saggi che esamina miti, leggende e superstizioni del Medioevo, mettendo a confronto fonti storiche e narrazioni popolari. L'autore ricostruisce la genesi e la diffusione di racconti che riguardano pontefici e figure erudite, analizza casi emblematici come la leggenda intorno a Silvestro II e la demonologia presente nell'opera di Dante, e discute miti geografici, topoi letterari e racconti di santi e pellegrini. Il testo combina analisi critica, confronti di cronache e considerazioni sulla mentalità religiosa e sul ruolo dell'immaginario nella formazione delle tradizioni.
