Historically accurate information on more than 2,000 legendary saints, organized month by month according to the liturgical calendar. Learn the facts about the saints who have inspired masterpieces & given their names to our towns & to us. This packed a lot of info into a small book! It goes through the saints alphabetically, giving a brief synopsis of each one's life. At the end, it includes a large list of other saints (I'm a bit confused about these, perhaps most of them are not "official"?) and tells what folks pray to them for. I am Protestant so did not grow up with all these saints. It was interesting to think how different it might be to be brought up hearing about all the torture and death surrounding a lot of them. It was also interesting to me to learn that some of them had "sinful" or unsavory lives before becoming saint-like. I had thought one had to be 100% saintly! The list at the back really gets humorous after a while. It reminds me of a pantheon of gods who should solve all your problems. And I suppose that's because I am Protestant and do not have anyone between God/Jesus and me. An interesting and enlightening read! aucune critique | ajouter une critique
