Tales of miracles in hagiographical literature in general and in collections of miracles more specifically were always at Byzantium an outstanding testimony on the evolution of the cults, and even of the whole society itself, through a plenty of cues, sometimes unexpected: although the tale of miracle has its own rules, it is often closer to realia than the hagiographical constructions in the Lives of saints. The studies collected here, aiming at the “temps long”, or at a specific text or dossier, or transversally at a theme common to a group of texts, give a hint of the rich potential of those sources.
