[Clare of Assisi.] The
processus survives in Latin in
fragments, in volgare in a 16th-century version. Apparently
much of what is known can be found in Marco Guida,
Una leggenda in cerca d’autore: La Vita
di Santa Chiara d’Assisi. Subsidia Hgaiographica 90. Brussels: Bollandistes,
2010, a study which decisively attributes BHL 1815 to Thomas of Celano,
but which tangentially deals with the
processus texts used in that vita.

[Louis IX]. An inquest was taken between May of 1282 and March of 1283, interviewing 330 witnesses to 63 posthumous miracles. Only a fragment of this survives: see H-François Delaborde, "Fragments de l'enquête fait à Saint-Denis en 1282 en vue de la canonisation de Saint Louis," Mémoires de la Société de l'histoire de Paris et de l'Ile de France 23 (1896); Louis Carolus-Barré, Le procès de canonisation de Saint-Louis (1272-1297): Essai de reconstitution. Rome: ÉFR, 1994. There is a summary of the evidence of the inquest made by Guillaume de Saint-Pathus, ca. 303, which Sharon Farmer, in AHR 103 (1998): 350-51 claims to have compared to the fragments that survive and found quite accurate. These are published in Guillaume de Saint-Pathus, Confesseur de la Reine Marguerite, Les miracles de Saint Louis, edited by Percival B. Fay. Classiques Les francais du Moyen Âge 70. Paris: Honoré Champion, 1931.
