Holy people in the towns
Umiliana and Raimondo were people who came to be reverenced
as saints
during their lifetimes. Neither of them was canonized and made
a
saint. These accounts of their lives were written by people who
knew

3. them. Both accounts are very good evidence for social
experience and
religious values in the thirteenth-century towns.
They differ by class and gender: Umiliana was the daughter of a
rich
banker, while Raimondo probably started out as a shoe repair
man.
Reading questions:
How did each of them view marriage and family? How did they
try to
live a holy life? Both saints were venerated by some people but
attacked
by others. How and why?
The last two readings, Sacchetti on modern saints and
Salimbene on
Albert the wine carrier, provide us with currents of skepticism
and
mockery: what did these authors think of local saints?

6. this year occur
or brentator, in Cremona.In -red the cuceptiue
miracles of a man named Albt-rl, who was a winc carrier,
In chat same year took place the deceptive miracles of a man
from Cremona
named Albert, a man who had been a wine carrier [portator], a
wine drinker [potator]
and indeed also a sinner [peccalor). After this man's death,
according to common
report, God performed many miracles in Cremona, Parm�, and
Re�gio: in Reg·
gio in the Church of St. George and St. John the Baptist; m
Parma m_ the chu'.ch

wither away, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened." Yet
whoever refused
to take part in such celebrations was considered to be simply
envious or even
heretical.
Because of this man Albert, some wicked men insulted the
Friars }dinor and Preachers but
God quicklj "shewed them w be liars" who wished ta accuse
them [Wisdom 10.14].
Some men of secular life said to _the Friars Minor ana

7. Preachers with a loud
clear voice, "You think that nobody can work miracles but your
own saints, bu;
you ar� clearly deceived, as �as b':en made clear through
Albert." But God quickly
�lottea out the slander agamst his servants and friends by
showing "them to be
liars that had accused" them [Wisdom 10.14] and by punishing
those who "lay
a blot on the elect" [Ecclesiasticus 11.33]. For a certain man
came to Parma from
Cre1'.1ona bearing w�at he claimed to be a relic of chis saint
Albert, that is to say,
the httle t�e of the right foot; and all the citizens of Par!Da
gathered together,
_from the highest to the lowest, men and women, "young men
and maidens ...
the old with th� younger" [Psalms 148.12], clerks and lay, and
men of all religious
Orders. Then lil a large procession, singing as they went, they
carried that toe
to the cathedral of Parma, the church of the Glorious Virgin.
And when they
had plac_ed the toe on the high altar, Lord Anseim of San
Vitale, canon and vicar
of the b.1shop, came forward and kissed it. But he smelled the
stench of garlic
and told the other clerks. Then they all discovered that they had
been deceived
and confounded, for their "relic" turned out to be a clove of
garlic. And thus the
; Parmese w_e�� tricke� and mocked, because they _"walked
after vanity, and are
become vam lJerermah 2.5]. Moreover, since this man Albert

8. was buried in a
church in Cremona, the Cremonese wished to show that God
would work infinite
miracles through him, and so large numbers of infirm men came
there from Pavia
and the other parts of Lombardy that "they might be delivered
from their infir-
mities" [Acts 5.15]. And many noble ladies came with their sons
to Cremona from
Pavia for devotional reasons, hoping to report the complete
healing of their bodies,
of St. Peter, which is near Piazza Nuova. And all the
brentatores, that 1s, the wme
carriers of Parma congregated in the church, and blessed was
that man who could
touch thein or give them something. Women did the same. And
the people formed
societies, parish by parish, and marched in procession through
the streets to t�e
Church of St. Peter, where the relics of this man Albert were
preserved. In their
march they carried crosses and standards, and sang as they
marched along. And
they brought purple cloth, samite, canopies, and much money to
the church. Later,
the wine carriers divided all these things up among themselves.
And when the
parish priests saw this, they had this Albert painted in their
c�urche� s� that they
would receive better offerings from the people. And at that
time, his image was
painted not only in the churches, but also on many walls and
porticoes of cities,

9. villages, and castles. This, however, is expressly against the
laws of th_e Church,
"-':, �.-, 'but "there was none that would answer" [Isaiah 66.4] a
word, or "opened ihe mouth
·.1J . !'. · or made the least noise," Isaiah 10 [. 14 ). Thus
Jeremiah 14 [.22] says: "Are ther;
. .':�f · d::_:;,�- a�y among the graven things of the Gentiles
that can send rain? or can the heavens
for no man's relics are supposed to be held in reverence unless
he 1s first ap·
proved of by the Church and written in the catalogue of saints;
in si1_11ilar man·
ner a man is not to be depicted as a saint before he has been
canomzed by the
Ch�rch. Those bishops, therefore, who allow such abuses to be
practised in their
diocese merit removal from office; that is, they should have the
dignities of rhe c·
episcopal office taken away from them. But there is_ nobody to
con:ect those er· -s·
rors and abuses. And so the words of Zachariah [ 11.17] are
appropriate for every ·.,.
bishop who allows such things to go on: "0 shepherd, and i�ol,
that forsak�th ·,_
the flock: the sword upon his arm and upon his right eye: his
arm shall quJte
:.:; . give_ show:rs?" Thus_ it is that a sinner or an infirm man
goes badly astray by
, .. c ·. camng aside true sames and by praying to one who
cannot intercede for them
{/ <:5 is written in the book of Wisdom, 13 ( .18-19): "For
health he maketh supplica'.

10. ;�:�· '-uon to the w�ak,. and for life prayeth to that which is
dead, and for help calleth
·· · upon that which 1s unprofitable: And for a good journey he
petitioneth him that
� . cannot ".'alk: and for getting, and for working, and for the
event of all things he
·_ .. ukcth him that 1s unable to do any thing."
