N2  - "Petite légende dorée de la Haute-Bretagne" by Paul Sébillot is a collection of local legends and hagiographical tales written in the late 19th century. The book focuses on lesser-known saints from the region of Haute-Bretagne, illustrating their miraculous deeds and the folklore surrounding them. Through these narratives, Sébillot captures the essence of local devotion and cultural heritage tied to these figures.  The opening of this work introduces us to a tale about Sainte Blanche, a model of piety who, during an English invasion, is captured but miraculously escapes by walking on water. The narrative unfolds as Sainte Blanche returns to her hometown and assists a local captain in defeating the English, showcasing her divine influence. This story sets the tone for the collection, which intertwines themes of local history, religious devotion, and the miraculous occurrences attributed to various saints, highlighting their importance in the cultural consciousness of the people of Haute-Bretagne.
