| Summary: | An isolated branch of the tradition of Notker the Stammerer’s Gesta Karoli contains the account of a peculiar miracle of the martyr saint Pancras, connected to the events that led to the coronation of Charlemagne as Holy Roman Emperor at the hands of Pope Leo III. This branch of the Gesta conveys an alternative version of the text, which, albeit spurious, includes some additional passages characterized by elements that seemingly derive from its context of origin. The aim of the article is to identify, through the philological analysis of these excerpts, a number of hints that might help determine the place and date of composition of this redaction and of the miracle-tale therein contained, in order to better understand the relationship between the sources concerning the specific function ascribed to saint Pancras in the text - that is, the ability to identify and punish perjuries. |
