Butler's original lives, published in the 18th century, were essentially a popular English translation of the Acta Sanctorum of the Bollandists. Canon O'Hanlon in his work points out where and when the Bollandists have noticed our native saints, but does not use their work as his primary source. He does also note some of the feasts of non-Irish saints but these tend to be early saints and martyrs whose feast days are recorded in the earliest of the surviving Irish calendars.Brigithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10500169174019662556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503689522096376739.post-41744146798601367412011-06-21T10:37:30.983+01:002011-06-21T10:37:30.983+01:00I like these posts a lot.

There is news and occasional visits interspersed with prayer. In every day there is something new but much that is familiar and then we turn to God and the Saints and raise our hearts to God. That's why I keep coming back.Ransomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10085400043324797507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503689522096376739.post-22476248173223042992011-06-16T00:21:53.822+01:002011-06-16T00:21:53.822+01:00What is the differnce between Butler's lives o...What is the differnce between Butler's lives of the saints and O'Hanlon's?
