Her existing hagiography, written between about 450 and 500, is of no historical value and the relations it attributes to Susanna are entirely fictitious.Michael Lapidge, ''The Roman Martyrs: Introduction, Translations, and Commentary'' (Oxford University Press, 2018), pp. 270–71. It is probable that a real martyr named Susanna lies behind the literary invention.Basil Watkins, ''The Book of Saints: A Comprehensive Biographical Dictionary'', 8th rev. ed. (Bloomsbury, 2016), p. 696.According to David Hugh Farmer, ''The Oxford Dictionary of Saints'', 5th rev. ed. (Oxford University Press, 2011), s.v.

Her feast day is on 11 August in the ''Roman Martyrology'', but since 1969 her veneration has been limited to the Church of Santa Susanna in Rome. She has no connection to Saint Tiburtius, who is commemorated ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
