Hello you wise ones.
I am working on a paper about the nativities of early Irish saints and
the question that specially interests me is the way Irish saints are
usually chosen by God to be saints already before their birth and how
this is manifested in prophecies and miracles before and during their births.
I am just wondering how common this kind of born-to-be-saints are in early
Continental hagiography versus saints that have to go through a conversion?
Yours,
