Description
The Legend of St. Juliana is a book written by Cynewulf and first published in 1906. It tells the story of St. Juliana, a beautiful and devout young woman who lives in Nicomedia during the reign of Emperor Maximian. Despite her many suitors, Juliana refuses to marry, dedicating herself instead to her faith in Christianity. One day, Juliana is visited by a demon disguised as an angel, who tries to seduce her. Juliana sees through the demon's disguise and rejects him, causing the demon to reveal his true form and attack her. Juliana is eventually martyred for her faith, but not before converting her executioners to Christianity.The Legend of St. Juliana is a classic example of hagiography, or the writing of saints' lives. It is written in Old English and is notable for its vivid descriptions of Juliana's struggles and the supernatural events that occur throughout the story. The book also includes commentary and analysis of the story by the author, making it a valuable resource for scholars of medieval literature and religious studies.Translated From The Latin Of The Acta Sanctorum And The Anglo-Saxon Of Cynewulf.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
