All the media, including redoubts of sneering secularism like the Guardian newspaper and the BBC, have been carrying hagiographical accounts of the pope's life and death. |
Based on her hagiographical work, she has put together a single volume which contains forty biographical sketches of female saints from antiquity to the present. |
The story is offered, after all, in a hagiographical setting. |
Those interested in the more arcane hagiographical matters will enjoy the appendices to this readable volume. |
Though some of these have a strong hagiographical flavour, others are soberly written and of great historical value. |
I do not appreciate the hagiographical approach of the media. |
