medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Now that all the sceptics on the Holy List are ready to throw me off the Tarpeian Rock, I checked all the calendars around my apartment, office, and local bookstores (here in Macerata, near Ancona, where I'm teaching this semester). They list S. Eulalia for Feb 12. Only my desk calendar of saints (published by Mondadori, edited by Claudio Giustini, Dec 2003) puts S. Pamela for Feb 12, followed by an advertisement for Jules Verne and of course the appropriate zodiac reading. Only in Italy can one wake up to a TV newscast with the saint of the day, followed by one's astrological instructions. In ogni modo,grazie a tutti, Thomas Renna Saginaw Valley State >>> [log in to unmask] 02/07/04 7:10 PM >>> medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture In a message dated 2/7/2004 5:39:48 PM Central Standard Time, [log in to unmask] writes: > My Italian calendar lists Saint Pamela for Feb. 12, but I can't find any > >>information on her.
