Title :
The Legend of Saint Rictrude: Formation and Transformations (Tenth- Twelfth Century) [the author argues that the narrative cycle that began with Hucbald's "Vita Rictrudis" changed over time to meet the needs of various male monastic communities; in one text the emphasis was on enhancing the saint's social prestige while another underlined the sanctity of the monastery's lands given by Saint Rictrude; in most cases there was a concern to provide the monastery in question with a usable past].

Title :
La "Vita Rictrudis" di Ubaldo di Saint- Amand: un'agiografia intellettuale e i santi imperfetti [Hucbald of Saint Amand described Saint Rictrude of Marchiennes in terms not entirely derived from traditional hagiography. Her difficulties dealing with her mother are particularly individualized. Hucbald's portraits of the saint and her family reveal their imperfections as well as their virtues. The reader is left to judge their qualities and achievements. Title note supplied by Feminae.].
