Summary/Abstract: The legend of St. Adalbert with inc. Adelbertus alto sanguine (AAS) is an abridgement of the so-called Second Life of St. Adalbert in the longer redaction (inc. Nascitur purpureus flos). The paper discusses the hagiographic context of the legend created in the second half of the 13th or the first half of the 14th century, the manuscripts containing it and relations between them. Because the legend belongs to the indirect tradition of Nascitur, special attention was devoted to the redactorial method and possibilities of utilising the AAS for criticism of the text of Nascitur in the longer redaction. In an attempt to date and localise the adaptations, remnants of the cult if St. Adalbert in medieval Erfurt (relics, liturgical manuscripts and calendars) are discussed. An edition of the legend based on the two surviving manuscripts forms an appendix to the paper.
