This is a rough meld of material from St Peter Damiani. Your help is needed. I have to go to bed now... --Wetman 07:59, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

"Pietro Damiani"?

How does the current title of the article Pietro Damiani (which is modern Italian) relate to normal English usage? I have never encountered the man's name otherwise than as Peter Damian or Petrus Damiani. Is Pietro Damiani even attested? Iblardi 15:12, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm moving the page to Peter Damian to have it reflect common usage. Iblardi 20:29, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Couldn't move it to a page with that title since it already redirected here. I decided to make it Petrus Damiani, the Latin form of his name, which makes sense insofar as Latin is the language he and his colleagues wrote in and the Latinized form of his name would be the one he was known by to both contemporaries and later generations, and I would say that the traditional Latin form is probably much better known to the English speaking world than the Italian form. Iblardi 20:41, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I copied the article to Peter Damian and then changed this page into a redirect to that one. MishaPan (talk) 23:19, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've gone ahead and history merged the article to fix the cut and paste move. Graham87 06:16, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No St Peter Damiani article

There is no St Peter Damiani article. Where can I find the rest? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bolinda (talk • contribs) 04:11, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Illustration

Correction: The illustration shown from Pinacoteca de Brera does not include Peter Damian as wrongly stated, but Peter de Honestis! Oluf Schönbeck — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.44.135.2 (talk) 21:35, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Old page history

I have moved some old page history that used to be at the title "Peter Damian" to Talk:Peter Damian/Old history. Graham87 06:16, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

University of Parma

It's funny how he studied and taught at the University of Parma when the first universities in Europe were still a century in the future. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.251.7.96 (talk • contribs)

University of Parma says it was founded in 962. In fact it was a Studium like several others at the time which were then succeeded by universities. So it's a common simplification to translate the pre-universitas Latin name as "university of X". This is a bit misleading especially when it's done only for the sake of claiming historical continuity and a very ancient foundation date for the current entity, but I don't know how to fix all the related articles. --Nemo 07:25, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Patron Saint of traceurs and freerunners

Is Peter Damian really the patron saint of traceurs and freerunners, or is someone pulling our leg? A verifiable source would be welcome for this bizarre claim. Eroica (talk) 15:24, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There is an episode about him (and his discussion of whether God can restore virginity one lost as the discussion of time and determinism) in the series https://historyofphilosophy.net/peter-damian
