Summary "Le Mont Saint-Michel, son histoire et sa légende" by Joséphine Amory de Langerack is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the origins, significant events, and legends surrounding the iconic abbey of Mont Saint-Michel, a site of profound religious and national importance in France. The narrative intricately intertwines history with local folklore, providing a rich tapestry of the events and figures that have contributed to the abbey's legacy. The opening of the book introduces readers to the spiritual roots of Mont Saint-Michel, recounting the foundational legend of Saint Aubert, who, inspired by a vision of the archangel Michael, constructed a small church on the mount in the early 8th century. It paints a vivid picture of the geography of Mont Saint-Michel, detailing its isolation and significance in the struggles between France and England throughout history. Notable events, such as miraculous occurrences and the establishment of pilgrimages, are noted, setting the stage for an exploration of the abbey's transformation into a revered site for both religious devotion and national pride.
