By Thomas Oswald Cockayne

Book Overview

De Liflade Of St. Juliana is a book that features the story of Saint Juliana, as told in two old English manuscripts dating back to 1230 A.D. The book is written by Nicomedia and was originally published in 1872. The story of Saint Juliana is a tale of faith, perseverance, and devotion. Juliana was a young woman who refused to marry a pagan suitor, choosing instead to remain celibate and devote her life to God. Her suitor, angered by her rejection, had her imprisoned and tortured, but Juliana remained steadfast in her faith. Eventually, she was martyred for her beliefs. The book provides a glimpse into the life and times of medieval England, as well as the religious beliefs and practices of the period. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the lives of early Christian saints and the challenges they faced in their pursuit of faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
