Abstract

TheSouth English Legendary(hereafterSEL)is an anonymous thirteenth-century vernacularliber festivalis, following the calendar written primarily for a ‘lewid’ audience. Beyond that limited assertion there still remain fundamental unanswered questions as to its source, place of origin, and authorship. The situation is only somewhat better concerning the date of composition. Indeed, in the face of so many vexing and unanswered questions concerning theSEL, I hope to be able to give a more precise date for the original composition than has been hitherto established.
