A Calendar of Scottish Saints by Michael Barrett
QR code
"A Calendar of Scottish Saints" by Dom Michael Barrett is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a catalog of various saints from Scotland, detailing their lives and the religious significance of their legacies. The text presents a strong focus on the contributions of these saints through their missionary work, local cultus, and dedications in the form of churches and places named after them. The opening
of the text highlights the intent behind the compilation, which aims to document the life stories of several saints, emphasizing not their national identities but rather their influence in Scotland and the areas where they preached. Various saints are introduced, with brief mentions of their origins, connection to Scotland, and their respective feast days. The first entries include outlines of figures such as St. Ernan, St. Suibhne, and St. Kentigern, providing insights into their deeds and the impact of their faith across Scotland, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of each saint in subsequent entries throughout the calendar year.
