The Cult of Saints project has organised a series of four sessions at this year’s International Medieval Congress in Leeds (July 2017) which will explore the lower reaches of sainthood: men and women who nearly, but didn’t quite, make it into sainthood; and those who just succeeded in being accepted as saints, sometimes only to sink back into oblivion. The session organisers are Bryan Ward-Perkins (University of Oxford) and Robert Wiśniewski (Instytut Historyczny, Uniwersytet Warszawski), and full details of the sessions can be found in the IMC programme available here.
