| ID | Title | E06301 | Audoin's Life of *Eligius (bishop of Noyon, ob. 660, S02032) records across two books the saint's lay and then episcopal career, his posthumous cult, and many miracles. It provides further evidence for many other cults in 7th-century Gaul. Written in Latin in Gaul, possibly in 660/86, with later additions and emendations. | E07358 | Venantius Fortunatus writes the Life of *Severinus (bishop of Bordeaux, early 5th c., S01273), presenting him as a healer in life and a defender of the city after his death. Written in Latin, probably in Poitiers (western Gaul), 580/588. From the 9th c. onwards, this Life becomes confused with that of *Severinus (bishop of Cologne, early 5th c., S02870). |
