Description
Summary:The aim of this article is to reexamine the hagiographic dossier of Bishop Godehard of Hildesheim (1022-1038). From this, it appears that Vita Ia (BHL 3581) must be considered to be a “preparatory work” compiled during the life of the saint, which enabled its author, Wolfhere, to compile a veritable saint's Life (BHL 3582) in about 1054. This Life was complemented in the 1070s by a collection of miracles (also BHL 3582). As far as the other texts of the dossier are concerned, only two hagiographical undertakings are notable: the composition in about 1132 of the Translatio (BHL 3584), which was later complemented by some individual miracles, and in the 14th century the composition of Vita IIIa (BHL 3590), the main component of which is the Miracula in vita patrata (BHL 3583), which until now had never been dated and which have generally but erroneously been considered to be individual work.
