Life
Saint Isidore of Seville was Archbishop of Seville for over three decades and the last of the Latin Fathers of the Church. Born around 560, he compiled the Etymologiae, a vast encyclopedia that preserved much of classical learning through the early Middle Ages. He has been proposed as the patron saint of the internet due to his work in organizing human knowledge.
