The «Passione Mai» is a Passion narrative which harmonizes the four Gospels. The text is preserved in a fourteenth-century manuscript of the Angelo Mai Library in Bergamo (Italy), and its prologue clearly shows that it was intended for reading aloud on Good Friday, perhaps in a brotherhood of laymen. The study argues that the «Passione Mai» is a translation from Latin and analyses its language, identifying it as ancient Venetian. Nonetheless, the language shows a few non-Venetian features, together with a Latin influence

Abstract
The «Passione Mai» is a Passion narrative which harmonizes the four Gospels. The text is preserved in a fourteenth-century manuscript of the Angelo Mai Library in Bergamo (Italy), and its prologue clearly shows that it was intended for reading aloud on Good Friday, perhaps in a brotherhood of laymen. The study argues that the «Passione Mai» is a translation from Latin and analyses its language, identifying it as ancient Venetian. Nonetheless, the language shows a few non-Venetian features, together with a Latin influence
