The Vita s. Iohannis Gualberti by Gregorio di Passignano was written in the last decades of the XII century in the light of Giovanni Gualberto’s canonisation (1193). Only a few fragments from this Vita were known: they were published in the XVIII century by the Vallombrosian Fedele Soldani. Thanks to another fragment, which was found in ms. 363 in the Library of the City of Arezzo, it has been possible to better analyze the characteristics of this hagiography and the connections with the older Lives of the saint. This paper comprises also the publication of this fragment.
