FOREWORD
MY friends,
complying
Maurice and Wilfred Drake, have been flattering enough to ask
to write a foreword to their book,
is to set forth, as I
and
understand
it seems to
it,
me that the best
work. In this country the great pioneer of the subject of saints and their
emblems was the Rev. Dr Husenbeth. The plan adopted by him is to give in each case
the accredited emblem or emblems of the saints, citing at the same time the source of his
authority. The compilers have developed Dr Husenbeth's method by inserting the names
of places with which the different saints are associated, and by referring, moreover, to the
printed sources where the life of each saint may be found most fully detailed. Cross
references supply, alphabetically, first the name of the saint and his or her proper emblem,
and secondly the emblems themselves, followed by the saint or saints to which they belong.
While fully acknowledging their indebtedness to Dr Husenbeth, the compilers yet claim to
have carried their researches a great deal farther, inasmuch as they have increased his list
of fifteen hundred names to some four or five thousand. By suggesting emblems for saints
who, like St. Britwald or St. Decuman, for example, have no specially personal nor dis-
tinguishing emblem of their own, the extent of the book might have been increased
indefinitely. But after deliberation the idea of doing so was abandoned —and wisely so,
in my opinion. For the value and usefulness of an emblem consists in the fact that it is a
prescriptive historical token, belonging to the recognised language of symbolism. It is
not the habit of the modern mind to express itself in this way. To invent new emblems,
then, where our fathers were content to do without them, would have been the merest
fantasy and affectation. One may invent, but who shall give the novel notion currency ?
Who make it intelligible? Without the stamp of general consensus it is vain. Every
possible care has been taken to ensure accuracy, but it is obvious that in a work of this
character and magnitude some errors must have managed to evade even the most vigilant
revision.
The public may rest assured that this volume is the result of long and conscientious
study ; and, that being so, it may well be expected to vindicate its claim to usefulness as a
guide not only to the craftsman —the glass-painter or the image-maker, for instance —who
requires a convenient list of saints and emblems for ready reference, but even to the more

PREFACE
the exercise of the handicrafts appertaining to ecclesiastical art the artist and
figures, and more particularly those of the lesser-known saints in the Calendar.
Moreover, the ecclesiologist and antiquary often find the correct identification of
many mediaeval figures by their distinguishing emblems even a more difficult task
than the suitable representation of saints whose names and histories are known.
Valuable as are the Rev. Alban Butler's twelve volumes, and the Rev. S. Baring-
Gould's fifteen dealing with the lives of the saints, they are arranged chronologically,
and in the majority of instances give no hint of any emblems at all. Dr. Husenbeth's
Emblems of the Saints, though admirably arranged, does not go far enough into the
matter for practical use. He only gives about fifteen hundred instances out of many
thousands, and it is very naturally the obscure and little-known saints —just those who
give most trouble to the craftsman, the ecclesiologist and the antiquary — who are un-
represented.
most convenient arrangement. To the saints' names and emblems are appended qualify-
ing initials, feast day or days, and date of death, whenever this could be obtained.
Further, where possible, the locality with which the saint is generally associated is
named, and following each list of emblems are references to volumes wherein his or her
To all accredited emblems which are already associated with the better-known saints
have been added the names of places where such examples may be seen, and finally, as
an aid to the craftsman only, the authors have ventured upon a new departure. In
cases where there is no known precedent for the use of an emblem they have given
briefly such particulars regarding the saint as may suggest a suitable emblem for identifi-
cation. For this purpose the period or implements of martyrdom have been specified,
and references made to any matters peculiar to his or her descent, teachings, or
