Der Heiligen Leben ('The Lives of Saints'), also known as Passional, was a German legendary, compiled by a Dominican friar from Nürnberg around 1400. Today, 197 manuscripts are known, along with 33 High German and 8 Low German imprints; the oldest imprint is that of Günther Zainer (Augsburg, 1471/72) and the latest is from Strassburg (1521). The 1502 edition had a print run of 1000 copies, an exceptional figure for the time. The collection originally contained 251 legends and became 'the most influential model for most of the vernacular legendaries of the fifteenth century', and was 'unparalleled in its overall popularity in the whole of Europe ... Hardly a work of German literature was read by such a wide audience'.

  • Der Heiligen Leben war die am weitesten verbreitete volkssprachliche Legendensammlung des europäischen Spätmittelalters. Sie entstand um 1400 im Dominikanerkloster Nürnberg als zweibändiges Legendar in Prosa. Das Werk ist in knapp 200 Handschriften und 33 oberdeutschen und 8 niederdeutschen Druckauflagen überliefert und war im gesamten deutschsprachigen Raum wie in den Niederlanden und in Skandinavien verbreitet. Es stellt eine große Ausnahme unter den deutschen Legendaren dar, weil es nicht primär auf lateinische Quellen, sondern letztlich fast ausschließlich auf deutsche Vers- und Prosalegenden zurückgeht ('Passional', 'Märterbuch', Hartmann von Aue: 'Gregorius', Ebernand von Erfurt: 'Heinrich und Kunigunde', Reinbot von Durne: 'Georg' usw.). Es galt als volkssprachliches hagiographisches Quellenwerk schlechthin (Meistersinger, Jakob Mennels 'Habsburgisches Heiligenbuch' usw. sowie für die bildende Kunst) und wurde aufgrund seiner großen Popularität im Jahr 1537 auch zum Ziel einer Spottschrift Martin Luthers, Die Lügend von Sant Joh. Chrysostomus. (de)
