"The emergence of the cult of saints" by Russell Hardiman
 

Abstract

The continuity of the veneration of saints was shaped by the events of the secular world and the emergence of new peoples invading Europe from Asia and providing a challenge to monks especially with a missionary zeal to bring the new emerging nations into the Christian world of Europe and the Eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea.
