The article examines Bérenger Fredol’s "Summa confessionis" and Pietro da Monterubbiano’s "Historia beati Nicolai de Tolentino" with the aim to document the medical knowledge of a canonist and an hagiographer. In the first case the exceptions to moral norms concerning sexual life are studied; in the second case we deal with the description of diseases, healings, forms of ascetic life. The vocabulary used documents readings and contacts with a physicians’ environment. That medical knowledge came from the literary tradition (Isidore of Seville and his later remakes) as well as from the medical academic tradition of Montpellier (in the case of Bérenger), Gentile da Foligno’s "Consilia" and Pietro Ispano’s "De morbis oculorum." It is therefore possible to think that non-medical readers could have obtained that knowledge through miscellanies.
