WESTERN SAINTS FAQ
Reader Daniel Lieuwen
DISCLAIMER
I will not be spending much time on Western saints that every Orthodox should
know and love: Pope St. Gregory, St. Irenaeus, St. Augustine, St. Ambrose
of Milan. Italian saints tend to be fairly well known. However, saints from
Western Europe other than Italy are poorly known. Being of Dutch, French
(Huegenout), and German extraction, I have an active interest in such
saints. This will be a very preliminary list of sources of information:
pointers to texts containing lists of saints of particular countries,
places to acquires Lives (particularly those translated from texts from
the same age as the saint), places to acquire icons, and the like. I plan
to update it as I get more information. If you send mail to:
lieuwen@allegra.att.com,
I will try to incorporate the improvements in a reasonable time frame.
Information contained is unaudited. I am giving it as I was given it mostly
with only a small fraction of this the results of my own research. I will
improve errors and ommisions in responce to your feedback.
I am missing some addresses that I do not have on-line. Providing them to
me would improve the FAQ.

Where do I find Icons of Western Saints?
[as you can see this is sketchy, if you send me more
detailed information, like lists available from each source, I will add in;
I probably will at some point anyway, but if someone helps out, it'll speed
this up]

3) Various Western saints can be gotten from the "New Age 'Orthodox'" Monastary
in Nebraska and are sold at many places including Light and Life under the
name "Windows into Heaven". I would urge that those considering buying
from this source (the only source for many Western saints like St. David
of Wales apparantly), consider carefully the warnings about these icons
that appeared on the Orthodox mailing list.
4) St. Mark's (Western Rite) Antiochian Orthodox Church in Colorado has several
relevant icons (including all Saints of Britain)
5) The late Archimandrite David of the Monastery of St Seraphim of Sarov,
Walsingham, Norfolk, England, produced icons of several British Saints
including
St Columba,
St Patrick and
St Alban.
Prints of these should be available.

7) The predominantly Russian parish, Mark Markish attends in Boston
commissioned an iconographer to paint a large icon of St.Botolph,
the patron of the city of Boston (Botolphstown?) in Britain and its
American namesake.
8) An icon of St. Colman, Bishop of Lindisfarne, was obtained from _Orthodox
America_.
9) vol. 2 of Saints of Anglo-Saxon England (St. Nectarios) has St. Dunstan's
icon, but not in color (part of a four volume series by St. Nectarios Press
[or at least carried by them], two of which are out). Nina is looking into
getting it reproduced in color (asking its owner).
10) Line drawing icons of many saints of Gaul can be found in Fr. Seraphim
Rose's translation of VITA PATRUM
11) St. Tikhon's Bookstore carries a nice icon of all the saints of North
America recognized by the OCA and I believe other North American saints too.
12) There is a St. Edward [the Confessor] Brotherhood in England. They
apparantly have some English icons (including St. Edward).

GOIS publishes many icon prints of British and Irish saints, and recently
published as a postcard an icon I had commissioned of three local saints,
Columbanus, Gall and Comgall who were associated with Bangor Abbey before
evangelising parts of western Europe. The town of St Gallen in Switzerland
is named after him and (I think) he might be patron of Switzerland. I
have the troparia to all three saints if anyone is interested.
The chap who runs SGOIS (and edits an occasional newsletter called
"Orthodox News") is called Andrew Bond. His latest newsletter listed the
following icon postcards of the Saints of the British Isles which he had,
but I know he has many more than these, including eastern Saints:
Apostle Aristobulos [first Bishop of Britain]
St David of Wales
St Aidan of Lindisfarne
St Finan of Lindisfarne
St Colman of Lindisfarne
St Cedd of Essex
St Oswald of Northumbria
St Oswin of Northumbria
St Angus of Keld
St Eanswythe of Folkestone
St John of Beverley
St Brannock of Braunton
St Urith of Chittlehampton
St Brendan the Voyager
St Colman of Oughaval
Sts Gall, Comgall and Columbanus of Bangor
St Frideswide of Oxford
St Ita of Kileedy
St Brihtwold of Ramsbury

Where do I find Lists of Western Saints of Various Countries?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) The annual Calendar published in French by the Fraternite Orthodoxe (based
in Paris) contains substantial lists of French saints for each day of the
year.
2) The Calendar produced by the Orthodox Fellowship of St John the Baptist
(based in Britain) gives a conservative list of British (including Irish)
saints for each day.
3) The Typicon of St. John of Kronstadt press may still list Western Saints.
4) List of Saints of the Netherlands available in St. Herman Calendar
5) List of Pr-schism saints of Belgium in Orthodox Tradition Vol X Num 4 1993

Where do I find Lives of Western Saints?
[The nicely formatted ones are from St. Nectarios'
catalog

which I lifted with permission from Nina Seco]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) THE LION, a publication of St. Mark's, Denver publishes many articles
concerning Western pre-schism saints.
2) book listing Western Saints is "The Avenel Dictionary
of Saints" by Donald Attwater. 1981 Avenel Books New York. Distributed
by Crown Publishers by arrangement with Penguin Books Ltd.
3) Orthodox Life, Orthodox Word, Living Orthodoxy, and True Vine carry
lives of Western saints.
4) Lives of Saints Robert (Rupert) and Erendruda (Erentraud) of Salzburg can
be gotten on-line.
http://www.forthnet.gr/hellas/Orthodox-Page/reading/St.Pachomius/saints.html
5) Richard Stanton, A MENOLOGY OF ENGLAND AND WALES...1887 was suggested as a
nice source of no-longer-copyrighted material.
6) Butler's Lives of Saints is reputed to be pretty good if you get the "old"
edition. The newer edition by Attwater rewrites the lives in accord with
"current research", so traditions end up being lost.
7) The Lord willing, I'll be tracking down information on Lives of Dutch saints
(with a name like Lieuwen, I have some prejudice for things Dutch!). I was
given some names by Jim Forest, and hope to have more information on this
score "soon".

25) [From Norman Redington]
One truly outstanding popular book on the Celtic church, if
you can tolerate a slight "New Age" feel, is
AUTHOR: Toulson, Shirley.
TITLE: The Celtic year /
PLACE: Shaftesbury, Dorset ; Rockport, Mass. :
PUBLISHER: Element,
YEAR: 1993
This book is more than just an excellent handbook of Celtic saints
by feast day which includes their traditional legends as well as
modern critical opinion -- written for residents of/ visitors to
the British Isles, it features a "pilgrimage of the month" to
12 major sites, complete with detailed maps and travel tips!
26) [From Norman Redington]
Because the Celtic tradition is popular with aging hippies and
the like, there are a number of anthologies of Celtic spirituality
aimed at that market. One of the best is

Moving to the Anglo-Saxon era, Cambridge University Press publishes
B. Colgrave's excellent translations of English Latin writings,

available in paperback.

Where do I find Lives of Western Saints on Tape?
[Note, these are from St. Nectarios Press.
We carry them in our church library, but have bleeped out extraneous attacks
on other Orthodox Christians in them. They would be much improved by the
removal of that material. If it upsets you too much, don't order the tapes]

prepare his flock. Very timely reading for today! CTOS

12) [From Norman Redington]
Among Continental writers, besides those mentioned by Daniel and
of course the many editions of Augustine, one thinks of the
Loeb Classical Library, inexpensive bilingual texts from Harvard
University Press. Among those of Western Orthodox interest are the
Epistles of St. Jerome and The Consolation of Philosophy by St.
Severinus Boethius.
13) [From Norman Redington]
The Rule of St. Benedict is available in several editions; one I
am familiar with is Fr. Luke Dysinger's translation, embedded in
a "devotional commentary and workbook" by Norvene Vest entitled
_Preferring Christ_ (Source Books CA, Box 794, Trabuco Canyon,
CA 92678).
14) [From Norman Redington]
Finally I want to mention the amazing online "Augustine Seminar with
Related Resources" on the World Wide Web. (Among the resources is
a brand-new translation of Gregory the Great (Dialogos) _Moralia_
and much material on Augustine, Dialogos, Jerome, Boethius, and others.)

[contains a little information from an Old Catholic perspective on Ss.
Willibrord, Boniface, and Gregory---as well as Ss. Theodore of Canterbury,
Egbert, Wilfrid] I'm currently researching St. Boniface's life (or gettng
ready to, so any more material on his life you can suggest would be most
appreciated.)
John Cyril Sladden, _Boniface of Devon: Apostle of Germany_ (Exeter:
Paternoster Press, 1980)
Charles H. Talbot, _The Anglo-Saxon Missionaries in Germany_ (NY:
Sheed & Ward, 1954).
contains the Hodoeporicon of St. Willibald (Boniface's successor, if I
read correctly, as bishop of Mainz), which is probably the oldest life.
