Английская Википедия:Eutropius of Saintes
Шаблон:Infobox saint Saint Eutropius of Saintes (Шаблон:Lang-fr) is venerated as the first bishop of Saintes, France.[1] According to tradition, he was a Roman[1] or a Persian of royal descent[2] who was sent to evangelize Gaul either by Saint Clement in the 1st century or by Pope Fabian in the 250s as a companion of Saint Denis.
He lived as a hermit near Saintes and converted to Christianity the governor's daughter, Saint Eustella or Eustelle. According to tradition, the governor was so enraged by his daughter's conversion that he had both her and Eutropius killed. Eutropius was killed by having his head split open with an axe.[1][2]
Gregory of Tours mentions the tradition of Eutropius’ martyrdom in his work, but also notes that before Bishop Palladius of Saintes translated Eutropius’ relics around 590 to the Romanesque church of St. Eutropius in Saintes, no one really knew the legend of Eutropius.[2] In the 6th century, the poet Venantius Fortunatus refers to Eutropius in connection with Saintes.[2]
