The narrative hagiograph y survivin g fro m th e dioces e o f Roue n itsel f i s almost al l fro m three monasti c center s - Saint-Wandrille (Fontenelle) , Jumièges, and Saint-Oue n a t Rouen. Each of these houses and its dependents produced interrelated hagiographica l documents. Saint-Wandrille (Fontenelle) was the most prolific hagiographical center in the ear- ly medieval diocese of Rouen. This abbey, originally dedicated to Saint Peter, was es- tablished around 649 in the valley of the Fontenelle near the lower Seine2. Its founder , Wandregisilus (d. around 668, at least before 672), whose name it came to bear, was an Austrasian nobleman who abandoned Kin g Dagobert's court to embark on a spiritu- al quest . Ultimatel y h e reache d th e archdioces e o f Roue n wher e h e establishe d a monastery. His work prospered, aided by Archbishop Audoenus, the Neustrian elite, and the royal fisc. Half a century after hi s death, Saint-Wandrille controlled an alleged 4264 manses (LOT 1913, xxvi). That it became a literary center is evidenced by two for- tuitously surviving early manuscripts - a vita o f Wandregisilus and a copy of Jerome's ::' M y thanks to the SHG directors for many substantial contributions to this study, to the German His- torical Institute in Paris for hospitalit y grants in 1995 and 1998, and to Felice Lifshitz fo r her kindnes s in sharing her materials and research on Norman hagiography . 1 Monastic dominance of hagiography in the region of Rouen and in greater Normandy i s analyzed in Fe- lice LIFSHITZ, Eigh t Me n In: Rouennais Traditions o f Archiépiscopal Sanctity, in: The Haskins Societ y Journal 2 (1990) p. 63-74; Nancy GAUTHIER, Quelque s hypothèse s su r l a rédaction de s vies des saints évêques de Normandie, in: Memoriam sanctorum vénérantes-.

The Vita Ansberti (chap . 13) claims that 8th-cent . Saint-Wandrill e ha d about a thousand charters in its archives. That boast might sound incredible, but the 9th-cent. author(s) of the Gesta abbatum Fontanellensium di d have the resources available to incorporate into the Gesta material from about fifty charter s written in the first third o f the eighth century or earlier (LOT 1913, xiii). This prosperity initially suffered under the Carolingians. Imposed abbots looted the monastery. Donations ceased. Monastic holdings were reduced to 1582 manses4. Even- tually the fortune o f the monks began to improve5. The monastery's physical plant was rebuilt and its domains came to boast a n impressive number o f water mills 6. Yet 9th- cent. debates over provisioning arrangements leave some doubt about whether the do- mestic economy was ever fully stabilized 7. Vikings burned the monastery i n 851 and 858. Its monks began a series of ill-doc- umented wanderings, accompanied by the relics of their greatest saints, peregrinations discussed below in the context of the fragmentary hagiographica l evidence. By the mid 10th century, the exiled community had lost its coherence. Its relics were acquired b y Saint-Pierre a u Mont-Blandin o f Ghent. Monks from Ghen t attempted to recolonize Saint-Wandrille in 960, but the restored monastery was an undistinguished house un- til well into the 11th century. Saint-Wandrille honored at least eight of its saints in narrative hagiographical works written before the year 1000:1. Ansbertus; II. Childemarca; III. Condedus; IV Erem - bertus; V Lantbertus; VI. Vulframnus; VII. Waltfridus; and VIII. Wandregisilus. In this present study, the Roman numerals designating these dossiers are used in cross refer - ences, which are frequent becaus e the texts are interrelated. The dossiers vary greatly: many texts commemorate Ansbertus and Wandregisilus; none at all survive today fo r Childemarca and Waltfridus . This impressive collection might have been even larger i f the books o f Saint-Wan- drille had been better preserved, not only during the Viking era but also during the ear- ly modern age. Lost texts such as the Ss. Vandregisili et Vulfranni liber metrice, note d at 14th-cent . Saint-Wandrille (LAPORT E 1937-38, 27), might have had earl y medieva l antecedents but today this cannot be demonstrated.

Readers should be aware that all the obituary dates here are uncertain. Because none of these saints lived much past the 7th century, their obits were originally reckoned in abbatial and regna l years, not i n incarnational years . Saint-Wandrille, unfortunately , does not seem to have had either a single accepted lis t of abbatial reigns or a standard system for correlating them with royal ones. Subsequent historians have not found a universally accepted way to eliminate the resulting inconsistencies. I. ANSBERTU S Ansbertus (Fr . Ansbert) f 9.

A vita wa s at Saint-Wandrille in 1481 in the monastery's Lectionarius magnus (se e LAPORTE 1937-38,23). Yet no pos- itive evidence demonstrates the existence of an early medieval Vita Godonis. 9 Waningus (d. around 688) is commemorated i n BHL 8811-8814, fragmented »vitae« which are actual- ly excerpts o f the anonymous De Revelatione, aedificatione et auctoritate Fiscannensis monasterii (P L 151: 699-724 , esp. 707-12). The present written tradition owe s much to the hagiographical tradition s of Wandregisilus, Audoenus, etc. PONCELET 1904, p. 251-54, places the earliest known copy in the late 11 th century. 10 Bainus (d. around 710) is described i n the Gesta abbatum Fontanellensium ii , ed. PRADIÉ 1999 , 26-37. Bainus is discussed i n AASS Jun. IV (1701), 26-29. In the 14t h century, Saint-Wandrille's Passionarium II containe d a text for Bainus, as noted i n LAPORTE 1937-38, 18.

Although this might seem an obscure medieval text to choose to translate, St Wandregesilius was an important saint in the South Norfolk and Waveney area in former times and pilgrimages were made to the church dedicated to him at Bixley (near Norwich) from across this region, including the village of Mettingham. To understand this link, however, between St Wandregesilius and Mettingham we need to know more about the history of the village‟s famous castle. Mettingham: A Castle and a College Whilst Mettingham Castle may be integral to the identity of the village, probably few people are aware that for a long and significant period of its history it was home to a religious chantry college. Although today a „college‟ is usually conceived of as being purely an educational institution, the original colleges of medieval Europe were all primarily religious foundations, run by a dedicated staff of non-monastic clergy whose main purpose was to prayerfully remember the founders of the college in the daily round of church services. At the request of their founders, these religious colleges often had other roles which usually included the education of children and adults, as well as undertaking some pastoral responsibility for local people in surrounding parishes.

  • Medardustag Am 8. Juni
    Medardustag am 8. Juni Der Gedenktag für Medardus, dem Namenspatron der Ostdorfer Kirche, fällt diesmal auf einen Sonntag. Zur Feier des Tages findet abends am 8. Juni um 19 Uhr ein Medarduskonzert statt. Auch wenn in der evangelischen Kirche keine Heiligen verehrt werden, fragen wir: Wer war dieser Medardus? Wo und wann lebte er? Medardus wurde als Sohn eines fränkischen Adligen vermutlich im Jahre 475 in Salency bei Valenciennes in Frankreich geboren. Zum Bischof von Vermand wurde er im Jahre 530 gewählt. Er verlegte den Bischofssitz nach Noyon. Danach wurde er Bischof von Tournai (heute Belgien). Von dort aus missionierte er Flandern. Medardus zeichnete sich durch seine hingebungsvolle Liebe zu Menschen in Armut und Not aus. Früh verehrte man ihn und sprach ihn heilig. Medardus als Wetterheiliger Nach einer Legende wurde Medardus vom Gewitter überrascht, als er über Felder wanderte. Sofort flog ein Adler herbei, breitete seine Flügel über ihn aus und schützte ihn vor dem Regen. Trockenen Fußes kam er zu Hause an. Deshalb machte man Medardus zum Patron der Schirmemacher. Von den Bauern wurde er als Wetterheiliger angerufen, um für gutes Heuwetter zu sorgen. Am Gedenktag von Medardus, dem 8. Juni, wurde das Wetter für die beginnende Heuernte bestimmt. Eine Bauerregel lautet: „Was St. Medardus für Wetter hält, solch Wetter auch in die Ernte fällt.“ Oder: „Macht Medardus feucht und nass, regnet’s ohne Unterlass.“ Medardus starb wahrscheinlich um 560 und wurde in Soissons (nördlich von Paris) auf Befehl des merowingischen Königs beigesetzt. König Chlotar ließ in Soissons, dem Sitz der französischen Könige, eine Abtei errichten und darin die Gebeine von Medardus beisetzen.

After their meeting, they placed an order in Brussels, and the work was finished in March 1478. The churchwardens again travelled to Brussels to settle the payment, and the retable was shipped to Zoutleeuw via Mechelen.1 The subject and the style, as well as the presence of Brussels quality marks on both the sculpture and the case of the oldest retable preserved in the Zoutleeuw church today (fig. 8), confirm that it is the very same one that was commissioned in 1476.2 Saint Leonard, the Christian hero of the altarpiece, lived in Merovingian France around the year 500. His hagiography identi- fies his parents as courtiers to King Clovis and states that he had been baptized and instructed in Christian faith by Saint Remigius, archbishop of Reims. Leonard quickly won Clovis’ goodwill, and was granted many favors by him. Not only was he allowed to free the pris- oners he visited, he was also offered a bishopric. However, preferring solitude and prayer he refused the honor and instead went to live in a forest near Limoges, where he preached and worked miracles. One of these wonders involved the pregnant queen, who had joined her husband on a hunting party in the woods and was suddenly seized by labor pains. Leonard prayed on her behalf for safe delivery.

  • Sunday After the Feast of All Saints Commemoration of All the Saints Who Have Shone Forth in the Land of France
    Sunday After the Feast of All Saints Commemoration of All the Saints Who Have Shone Forth in the Land of France At Great Vespers After the Introductory Psalm, we chant “Blessed is the man…”, the first antiphon. On “Lord, I have cried…”, 10 stichera: 4 of the Resurrection, in Tone I— Accept Thou our evening prayers, O holy Lord, and grant us remission of sins, as Thou alone art He Who hath shown forth the resurrection in the world. Encircle Sion and embrace it, O ye people, and therein give glory unto Him Who hath risen from the dead; for He is our God, Who hath delivered us from our iniquities. Come, ye people, let us hymn and worship Christ, glorifying His resurrection from the dead; for He is our God, Who hath delivered the world from the deception of the enemy. Make merry, O ye heavens! Trumpet forth, ye foundations of the earth! Cry aloud in gladness, O ye mountains! For, lo! Emmanuel hath nailed our sins to the Cross; He hath slain death, granting us life, having raised up Adam, in that He loveth mankind. And 6 stichera of All Saints of France— In Tone I: Come, ye multitudes of Orthodox, let us hymn our fathers in the Faith: the martyrs, holy hierarchs, hieromartyrs, kings, priests, monks, the nuns, holy women and pious faithful, both known and unknown, who have increased the gift of God. Glorified by His love and radiant examples for us sinners, they intercede for the land of France. Come from the East—from Greece or Rome—or born in the land of France, ye baptized the land of our forebears in your blood, O holy martyrs.
