Abstract

Abstract: In this paper I discuss the whole of Marian miracles included by Miquel Peres in La vida de la sacratíssima Verge Maria (Valencia, N. Spindeler, 1494). This set of miracles not only highlights the specific functionality acquired in the structure of the work, but it also incorporates certain characteristics that differentiate them from collections of Marian miracula, as they lack of some of the most significant features of the genre. Miquel Peres miracles are evidence of the transformation and secularization of the genre, and they show new uses and new readers whom are addressed to.

Keywords: marian miracles, marian literature, hagiography, Miquel Peres, vita Mariae.
