Written between 1095 and 1243, it features fictitious characters and events rooted in the superstitions of early Christianity. The presence of Spanish names hints at its later composition during the reign of the Arragonian Kings in Naples. The author skillfully balances fervor with discernment, contributing to the literary flourishing that challenged contemporary superstitions.
