Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox saint Desiderius of Vienne (died 607) was a martyred archbishop of Vienne and a chronicler.

Life

Nothing is known about his early years. In 603, in a conflict with Brunhilda of Austrasia, the legitimacy of whose children he had attacked,[1] he was deposed after she combined forces with Aridius, bishop of Lyon. He was stoned to death, some years later,[2] at the order of King Theuderic II of Burgundy.[3]

He was rebuked by Gregory the Great for his interest in the pagan classics, in a letter provoked by the schooling he was providing for his clergy.[4]

Veneration

He is venerated as a saint in the Catholic Church, with his feast days on May 26.[5] In the Eastern Orthodox Church, his feast is celebrated on May 23 because of confusing him with Desiderius of Langres.[6] A hagiographical work was written about him by the Visigothic king Sisebuto, during the 7th century.[7] A later life was written by Ado of Vienne.
