Apocryphal Passions of the Apostles in Croatian Glagolitic Texts

In the course of the Middle Ages, apocryphal and hagiographic texts of The Acts of the Apostles of various origins became part of the Croatian Glagolitic literature. The Passion of Saint Andrew, for example, is documented in the sanctorale of nineteen Croatian Glagolitic breviaries dating from the period between the 14th and mid-16th centuries. The Glagolitic Passion is an abbreviated translation of the Latin Epistula presbyterorum et diaconorum Achaiae (BHL 428) from the 6th century. The texts of the Passion of James the Apostle (Jacobus Maior, apost., filius Zebedaei, frater Johannis, Passio, BHL 4057) are found in two Glagolitic breviaries, namely the Breviary of Vitus of Omišalj (1396) and the Second Breviary from Novi Vinodolski (1495). The Glagolitic Passion of Philip the Apostle is part of the sanctorale in eighteen breviaries. The breviary texts translate a part of the apocryphal Vita b. Philippi apostoli (BHL 6816), describing Philip the Apostle’s fight with the dragon.
