Abstract
The article presents an analysis of a short 13th century tale, relating a journey to Paradise, shows how the process of Christianization hinged on three motifs: 1) the dual invitation; 2) time expressed in terms of marvels; 3) the taboo transgressed. This text reveals a threefold code (aristocratic, peasant and clerical) sprung from oral tradition, as the anonymous author explicitly indicates, fully aware of the Christianizing process he is performing.
