As we reflect on the events marking Norbert's path to the episcopate, we begin introducing Norbert as a martyr. Not in the proper sense of the term, but in the figurative sense of a religious life sacrificed for the sake of an episcopal service in which he would expend his last energies.

Chapter Eight, Part Two

As we reflect on the events marking Norbert's path to the episcopate, we begin introducing Norbert as a martyr. Not in the proper sense of the term, but in the figurative sense of a religious life sacrificed for the sake of an episcopal service in which he would expend his last energies.
