Densetsu - Christian legenda

Christian legenda

In the narrow Christian sense, legenda ("things to be read ") were hagiographical accounts, often collected in a legendry.

Because saints' lives are often included many miracle stories, legend in a wider sense came to refer to any story that is set in a historical context but that contains supernatural or fantastic elements.

Famous quotes containing the word christian:

    “O, I have passed a miserable night,
    So full of fearful dreams, of ugly sights,
    That, as I am a Christian faithful man,
    I would not spend another such a night
    Though ‘twere to buy a world of happy days,
    So full of dismal terror was the time.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
