...This field of study, which distinguishes between legend and fact through historical criticism, was established in the 17th century by the Benedictine monks, especially the monks of the Saint-Maur, and by the Jesuit Heribert Rosweyde (1569-1629).

As a result, the existence of saints, who had long been the object of faith, is often denied.
