Note: This document was produced as a research tool for Medieval and Renaissance studies, so it focuses on people recognized as saints in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. The saints indexed here are those you might find listed in the calendars of Medieval and Renaissance manuscripts. Occasionally, a later saint may appear, but no effort has been made to include them. For information on saints from later periods (by which I mean c. 1500 to the present) you will have to look elsewhere (try the Catholic Online Saints Pages).

If you were to select "January 12" for example, you would find the following entry:

 

  • Arcadius, martyr [BLS]

  • Aelred, abbot [BLS]

  • Benedict (Biscop), abbot (of Wearmouth), confessor [GTZ: Durham]

  • Caesaria, virgin [BLS]

  • John, pope [HCC]

  • Satyrus, martyr [GTZ: Lebus]

  • Tatiana, virgin, martyr [BLS]

  • Tigrius and Eutropius, martyrs [BLS]

  • Victorianus, abbot [BLS]

This tells you that January 12th is the feast day of Aelred, Arcadius, Benedict Biscop, and various other saints. In the entry for Benedict Biscop, you can see that this saint was an abbot (at Wearmouth, in northern England), and a confessor, and that, according to Grotefend's Taschenbuch (GTZ), his cult was especially important at Durham.
