The author analyzes the five miracles that Saint Isidro, patrón of Madrid, performed in life, according to a manuscript from the late 13th century that echoes an oral tradition. She remarks on the multicultural character of the medieval town, in a period of transition from Muslim to Christian rule, and the extent to which the representation of Saint Isidro fits a model of sainthood that cuts across religious boundaries: it resembles the representation of other saints, Christian as well as Muslim. Isidro was a syncretic, conciliatory, popular saint who was able to respond to the needs and concerns of Madrid's lower classes in the Middle Ages.
