All that is reliably known of the patroness commemorated on February 14 is his name and that he was sufferer and buried at a necropolis on the Via Flaminia complete to the Ponte Milvio to the boreal of Rome on that Time. It is precarious whether Saint Valentine was one concrete or a alias for several. Several distinct martyrologies have been added to puisne hagiographies that are inconstant.
Because so little is reliably given of him, in 1969 the Catholic Church remote his name from the General Roman Calendar, license his liturgic celebration to regionary almanac.[3] The Roman Catholic Church connect to acknowledge him as a patroness, listing him as such in the February 14 vestibule in the Roman Martyrology,[4] and authorizing liturgic respect of him on February 14 in any trust where that age is not devoted to some other obligatory celebration in conformity with the empire that on such a day the Mass may be that of any patroness enrolled in the Martyrology for that day.[5] Use of the before-1970 liture.................
The name Valentinus does not appear in the original register of Roman sufferer, the Chronography of 354, although the defender of the Chronography's recueil was a wealthy Roman Christian named Valentinus.[12] However, it is found in the Martyrologium Hieronymianum,[13] which was compiled between 460 and 544 from old topic origin. The banquet of St. Valentine of February 14 was first established in 496 by Pope Gelasius I, who inclosed Valentine among all those "... whose appellation are accurately reverenced among man, but whose Acts of the Apostles are understood only to God." As Gelasius implies, nothing was then known circularly his world.
The Catholic Encyclopedia[14] and other hagiographical fountain[15] pronounce of three Saint Valentines that appear in dependence with February 14. One was a Roman priestlet, another the confirm of Interamna (recent Terni, Italy) both buried along the Via Flaminia outside Rome, at dissimilar contrariety from the village. The third was pret. quoth to be a saint who suffered on the same Time .......
