medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear Phyllis: I understand why in this English list so many of the saints
derive from the British Isles. But there are nevertheless mysteries.
One has recently noticed quite a number of English martyrs listed who
suffered under the Anglican state church, but why are there so few Irish
who were martyred under the Anglican church when it was established in
Ireland? Also, very few Scottish saints, if not ancient. Any good
reason? Yours appreciatively, John
