Abstract

St. Scholastica, based upon centuries of tradition, is considered the twin sister of St. Benedict of Nursia, founder of monastic communities and compiler of the Rule of St. Benedict, a guide to common-sense living and monastic organizations. St. Scholastica is the patron saint of Benedictine women's religious communities. Although the narrative material about Scholastica is very brief, she is considered significantly more important than might appear.
