medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Le culte liturgique de saint Ronan ne parait pas très ancien : Bréviaire
imprimé de Saint-Pol de Léon de 1516 (Paris BnF B 49290), bréviaire de
Tréguier du XV ème s. (ADCA n.c.?). Ronan est l'éponyme des paroisses de
Saint-Renan (diocèse de Léon) et de Locronan (diocèse de Quimper) lieu d'un
célèbre et antique pèlerinage (petite et grande troménie de saint Renan).
Brévalaire (Branwalatr) est aussi inscrit au 1er juin dans ce même bréviaire
de Tréguier. Il a été souvent confondu avec saint Brandan. Son culte
liturgique est ancien . Il figure dans plusieurs litanies bretonnes :
Psautier de Salisbury ( Xème siècle, ms 180) , Missel de Saint-Vougay (XIème
s.)

> Today (1. June) is the feast day of:
>
> Ischyrion and Companions (d. 250) Ischyrion was an official in Egypt. He
> proclaimed his faith during the Decian persecution. He and several
> companions were impaled and tortured until they died.
>
> Proculus (d. 542?) According to legend, Proculus was a soldier in
Bologna.
> After killing a Christian-persecutor who was in imperial service, Proculus
> himself was beheaded. Alternatively, Proculus was a bishop of Bologna who
> died, also as a martyr.
>
> Ronan (6th cent.) Ronan was probably an Irishman. He was active in
> Brittany as a missionary bishop in the sixth century, and lived an ascetic
> life as a hermit.
>
> Wistan (d. 850) Born in c. 820 in Mercia, Wistan became king at a young
> age, with his mother Elfleda ruling for him. A cousin wanted to marry
> Elfleda to gain power, but Wistan forbade it; the cousin then murdered
> Wistan. Wistan's relics later made it to Evesham, where a strong cult
> developed.
>
> Simeon of Trier (d. 1035) The Greek Simeon was born in Syracuse (Sicily)
> in the second half of the tenth century. He studied in Constantinople and
> became a hermit in Palestine, and then a monk at Mt. Sinai. In c. 1027
> Simeon came to Normandy, collecting alms for his monastery. He
accompanied
> Archbishop Poppo of Trier on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, and then
> returned with him to Trier. In c. 1029 Simeon became a recluse in a cell
> in the Porta Nigra (later made into a church, which is why the Porta Nigra
> survived when all the rest of the walls were torn down). Simeon was
> canonized only a few months after his death, by Pope Benedict IX.
>
> Enneco of Ona (d. 1057) Enneco, born in c. 980 in Calatayud (Spain)
became
> a Benedictine monk and later received the abbacy of Ona in Castile from
the
> king of Navarre. He made the monastery flourish, and it is reported that
> not only Christians but Jews and Muslims mourned when Enneco died. He was
> canonized in 1259.
>
> Kuno of Trier (d. 1066) Kuno, born in 1016, was made archbishop of Trier
> by Emperor Henry IV. Angered by this decision, made without the agreement
> of the clergy of Trier, opponents of Kuno captured him before he entered
> his office and murdered him by throwing him off a cliff. Kuno was soon
> honored as a martyr.
