It is probable that a real martyr named Susanna lies behind the literary invention.Basil Watkins, ''The Book of Saints: A Comprehensive Biographical Dictionary'', 8th rev. ed. (Bloomsbury, 2016), p. 696.According to David Hugh Farmer, ''The Oxford Dictionary of Saints'', 5th rev. ed. (Oxford University Press, 2011), s.v. "Tiburtius and Susanna", her legend was written around an actual entry in a martyrology. Her feast day is on 11 August in the ''Roman Martyrology'', but since 1969 her veneration has been limited to the Church of Santa Susanna in Rome. She has no connection to Saint Tiburtius, who is commemo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
