Leander of Seville

Leander of Seville was a sixth-century bishop of Seville, elder brother of Isidore and the statesman who brought King Reccared and the Visigoths from Arianism to Catholicism. His Training of Nuns, written for his sister Florentine, and his homily on the triumph of the Church made him the father of the Catholic conversion of Spain.
