editorialreviews

A Brief History of Saints follows the rise of the cult of saints in Christianity from its origin in the age of the martyrs down to the present day.



  • Refers to both well-known saints, such as Joan of Arc, and lesser-known figures like the ¡®holy fools¡¯ in the Orthodox tradition


  • Ranges over subjects as diverse as the history of canonization processes, the Reformation critique of the cult of saints, and the role of saints in other religious traditions


  • Discusses the relevance of sainthood in the postmodern era


  • Two appendices describe patron saints and the iconography of saints in art.
