Abstract

The life, murder, and miracles attributed to Thomas Becket produced to a rich written production that spread and extensive literary output that was diffused very quickly across the whole of Latin Christendom. The extensive amount of space dedicated to the English martyr in Codex I of the Archive of Tuy Cathedral, a pre- Gothic hagiographic volume of saints lives, is triking; and its surprising also is the selection of texts no less arresting. It may be that the Together they constitute Tuy volume is a unique example of an unusual dossier, a libellus sancti Thome Cantuariensis Archiepiscopi, which is introduced in the focus of this study.

Summary

ANA SUÁREZ GONZÁLEZ

Profesora Titular Universidad de Santiago de Compostela Área de Ciencias y Técnicas Historiográficas. El asesinato y los milagros atribuidos a Tomás Becket dieron lugar, inmediatamente, a una rica producción escrita prontamente difundida. Llama la atención el amplio espacio dedicado al mártir inglés en el Códice I del Archivo de la catedral de Tuy, un volumen hagiográfico pregótico y sorprende también la selección de textos. Tal vez sea el manuscrito tudense el único transmisor de un peculiar dossier, un libellus sancti Thome Cantuariensis Archiepiscopi que damos a conocer. PALABRAS CLAVE: Thomas Becket, Archivo de la Catedral de Tuy, Hagiografía, Siglo XIII.
