Their father Severianus is claimed to be according to their hagiographers a dux or governor of Cartagena, though \nthis seems more of a fanciful interpretation since Isidore simply states that he was a citizen. The family moved to \nSeville around 554. The children's subsequent public careers reflect their distinguished origin: Leander and Isidore \nboth became bishops of Seville, and their sister Saint Florentina was an abbess who directed forty convents and one \nthousand nuns. Even the third brother, Fulgentius, appointed Bishop of cija at the first triumph of Catholicism over \nArianism, but of whom little is known, has been canonised as a saint. The family as a matter of course were staunch \nCatholics, as were the great majority of the Romanized population, from top to bottom; only the Visigothic nobles and \nthe kings were Arians. It should be stated that there was less Visigothic persecution of Catholics than legend and \nhagiography have painted. From a modern standpoint, the dangers of Catholic Christianity were more political. The \nCatholic hierarchy were in collusion with the representatives of the Byzantine emperor, who had maintained a \nconsiderable territory in the far south of Hispania ever since his predecessor had been invited to the peninsula by the \nformer Visigothic king several decades before. In the north, Liuvigild struggled to maintain his possessions on the far \nside of the Pyrenees, where his Merovingian cousins and in-laws cast envious eyes on them and had demonstrated that they \nwould stop at nothing with the murder of Liuvigild's sister.","brand":"Picturesongold","offers":[{"title":"Stainless Steel \/ 2\/3 x 2\/3 IN","offer_id":48867590242457,"sku":"90534-243409-PSS","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stainless Steel \/ 3\/4 x 3\/4 IN","offer_id":48867590209689,"sku":"90534-243410-PSS","price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stainless Steel \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":48867590176921,"sku":"90534-243411-PSS","price":109.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sterling Silver \/ 2\/3 x 2\/3 IN","offer_id":48867590340761,"sku":"90534-243409","price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sterling Silver \/ 3\/4 x 3\/4 IN","offer_id":48867590307993,"sku":"90534-243410","price":109.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sterling Silver \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":48867590275225,"sku":"90534-243411","price":139.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold Plated \/ 2\/3 x 2\/3 IN","offer_id":48867590373529,"sku":"90534-243412","price":109.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold Plated \/ 3\/4 x 3\/4 IN","offer_id":48867590406297,"sku":"90534-243416","price":139.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold Plated \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":48867590439065,"sku":"90534-243420","price":179.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10k White Gold \/ 2\/3 x 2\/3 IN","offer_id":48867590537369,"sku":"90534-243415","price":219.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10k White Gold \/ 3\/4 x 3\/4 IN","offer_id":48867590471833,"sku":"90534-243419","price":269.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10k White Gold \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":48867590504601,"sku":"90534-243423","price":349.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k Yellow Gold \/ 2\/3 x 2\/3 IN","offer_id":48867590602905,"sku":"90534-243413","price":449.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k Yellow Gold \/ 3\/4 x 3\/4 IN","offer_id":48867590635673,"sku":"90534-243417","price":549.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k Yellow Gold \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":48867590570137,"sku":"90534-243421","price":649.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k White Gold \/ 2\/3 x 2\/3 IN","offer_id":48867590701209,"sku":"90534-243414","price":449.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k White Gold \/ 3\/4 x 3\/4 IN","offer_id":48867590733977,"sku":"90534-243418","price":549.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k White Gold \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":48867590668441,"sku":"90534-243422","price":649.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0728\/3510\/4921\/files\/gp_65ryk_90534_1484760128.jpg?v=1786553236"}],"url":"https:\/\/aliviadanny.com\/collections\/saint-leander-medals.oembed","provider":"Alivia \u0026 Danny","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
