Hardback, 535 p., 13 b/w ill., 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503536279. Entre 1312/1316 et 1329, le dominicain Bernard Gui redige une collection de Vies de saints intitulee Speculum sanctorale. Situee dans une histoire des legendiers dominicains, cette oeuvre montre leevolution de l'hagiographie de cet ordre. Alors que les hagiographes dominicains du XIIIe siecle repondent a des besoins ponctuels en privilegiant tantot la saintete locale tantot la saintete universelle, Bernard Gui cherche a faire la synthese entre ces differentes voies. Il produit alors une somme hagiographique dont la composition minutieuse supporte les enjeux identitaires de la promotion des saints de l'ordre, des cultes locaux et universels.
