This paper aims to analyze the Life of Spyridon attributed to Leontius of Neapolis (7th century AD). We will study in particular parallelisms between Saint Spyridon and the episodic characters in order to define how this technique endeavors to outline the description of the saint and to verify its didactic value in the text.
