Autorenporträt
The author of the "Gesta Romanorum," an anonymous cleric from late 13th or early 14th century England or Germany, masterfully compiled this timeless anthology. Their work, blending moralistic tales with historical and mythological elements, reflects the deep Christian ethos of the medieval era. Though their identity remains a mystery, their influence endures in the rich narrative tradition they helped shape, impacting generations of storytellers and readers alike.
