New Twitter moment ⚡️reporting on our conference #Lights19 -- “Northern Lights conference 2019”: https://t.co/3UY1uDPlZQ 😇📜⛪️☠️✝️📚
Our fourth and final plenary speaker is Catherine Sanok, with a paper titled 'Hermit Saints and Human Temproalities', feat. John of Beverley and Cuthbert. #Lights19

The selection of hagionymic surnames may be due to institutional rather than personal concerns, referring to religious figures associated to the history of the house, for example. Could this provide a new possibility of tracing saintly cults? #Lights19
A small portion of monks and canons before 1537 adopted hagionymic surnames, particularly in the 1490s. This was more common among the Benedictine orders. #Lights19
Following up with @DavidEThornton on “Northern Saints’ Names as Monastic Surnames in Late Medieval and Early Tudor England” #Lights19

Holm Cultram is at the intersection of complex political and ecclesiastical connections with England, Galloway, Scotland and Ireland. The saints’s lives copied at the Abbey have a Celtic origin. #Lights19
Claudia Di Sciacca closes this morning’s session with a fascinating paper on the re-writing of St Oswald’s life in 18th-century Friuli #Lights19

Our very own @ChristianiaW presents her paper on “The Production of Northern Saints’ Lives at Holm Cultram Abbey in Cumbria” #Lights19

Ricarda Wagner starting today’s session with an exciting paper on the vita of the 6th-century St Kentigern, composed by Jocelin of Furness and adapted by John of Tynemouth #Lights19

Christiane Kroebel presents her paper, ‘St Hilda in the Later Middle Ages: By Whom and Where Was She Remembered?’ #Lights19

First paper of one of this afternoon's sessions is given by Naoë Kukita Yoshikawa: "Cecily Neville's Devotional Library and Northern Readers of Saints' Lives". #Lights19

The afternoon continues with @r_j_salter and her paper on St Æbbe of Coldingham and her cure-seekers. Here we see an example of a miracle performed through the merits of the blessed Æbbe #Lights19

Camp: John of Beverley Agincourt connection makes him easiest to explain. William Porter fought there. #Lights19
Camp: Bede's saints were NOT that popular in these sources! (A fascinating observation; will be interesting to compare with Bedean influence on the literary-hagiographic construction of northern sanctity.) Camp challenging status quo here re. modern centrality of Bede. #Lights19
We've had many papers on the monastic context of northern sanctity, but Camp is offering us something different: an investigation of lay piety. Calendars&suffrages 'offer a robust image of what people knew about med saints' &how they incorporated them in their devotions.#Lights19

Camp is investigating northern saints in EIGHTY-SIX (!) books of hours, in order to make sense of the 8 northern saints in William Porter (Henry V's man)'s book of hours. #Lights19
