medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
From the Patrologia latina database, in a footnote to a Vita of St.
Norbert by a Norbertine canon [PL 170.1307]:
Footnote - (82)] /1307D/(82) Lazari etiam nunc in Belgio nominantur
leprosi: quia horum contubernia plura, ac nominatim apud Hierusalem.
Quin etiam Romae extra urbem teste a Lapide, habentur fundata sub
invocatione S. Lazari, evangelici pauperis, cujus ulcera canes lingebant.
There also are mentions in the database of churches and leprosaria named
for St. Lazarus; e.g., a privilege of Celestine III in PL 106.1085.
