-
There was a cult of Saint Christopher.
-
But in particular,
-
of two new saints who had an extraordinary vogue
-
during the plague year.
-
The first was Saint Sebastian,
-
and the other was Saint Rocco or Saint Roch.
-
Here is Saint Sebastian.
-
And if you think of the iconography,
-
you'll remember that when we talked
-
in the first lecture about Homer,
-
we saw that Apollo took arrows to shoot the plague,
-
to destroy the Greeks.
