medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture -----Original Message----- From: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of Phyllis Jestice Sent: Sunday, June 23, 2002 3:00 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [M-R] saints of the day 23. June medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Phyllis Jestice wrote: Today (23. June) is the feast day of: ............... Nazarius (mid-sixth cent. ) Nazarius is a popular saint of Capodistria (Italy). He was born near Capodistria sometime in the sixth century, and is regarded as the first bishop of that city, consecrated in 524. Nazarius is especially noted for the defense of his city against the Goths. ................. Dear Phyllis, the feast day of the supposed st. Nazarius of Capodistria (Slovenia, not Italy!) is on 19th of June the same date as st. Nazarius and Celsus from Milano!). The historical events about Goths (Ostrogoths!) are surely exaggerated. Your source is probably P. Naldini, Corografia ecclesiastica o' sia descrittione della citta, e della diocesi di Giustinopoli ..., in Venezia 1700, ristampa Bologna 1984. The source is important, but not waterproof.
