medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Out of sheer curiosity:
Why in 1673??? Who wanted Leo canonized at that time??

According to the Oxford Dictionary of Popes:
"Although a harsh and divisive pontiff, he was included in the
catalogue of saints in 1673 because of the presumed miracle of the
restoration of his eyes and tongue, although the sources in fact speak
only of an attempt to remove them."
