In the late fifteenth century, William Caxton translated into English and published a version of the best-known collection of saints’ lives in medieval Europe, the  Legenda aurea . It was the longest and most expensive book he ever produced. Caxton used various sources, including Latin and French versions of the  Legenda , to create a collection accessible to the book-buying public who were literate in the vernacular in late-fifteenth and early sixteenth-century England.  The Golden Legend  includes fifteen lives that incorporate Saracens or Turks into their narratives. It describes their interactions with Christians, both peaceful and violent, as well as their capacity for conversion. The depiction of Muslims in this popular sermon collection would have formed part of the cultural construction of Islamic people in England at the turn of the sixteenth century.
