Saint Cassian of Autun (French: Cassien) (died ca. 350 AD) was a 4th-century bishop of Autun. He may have been an Egyptian by birth. He traveled to Autun and was a follower of Saint Reticius, bishop of Autun. Cassian succeeded Reticius as bishop, serving for about twenty years, and was well liked by the people of his see. Gregory of Tours attributes miracles to Cassian. After the peace bought by Constantine he had a vision and decided to embark with some companions to evangelize the Britons. Getting as far as Autun, he became the assistant of Saint Rhétice Autun.

  • Saint Cassian of Autun (French: Cassien) (died ca. 350 AD) was a 4th-century bishop of Autun. He may have been an Egyptian by birth. He traveled to Autun and was a follower of Saint Reticius, bishop of Autun. Cassian succeeded Reticius as bishop, serving for about twenty years, and was well liked by the people of his see. Gregory of Tours attributes miracles to Cassian. After the peace bought by Constantine he had a vision and decided to embark with some companions to evangelize the Britons. Getting as far as Autun, he became the assistant of Saint Rhétice Autun. On the death of Rhétice, he was elected bishop. he pursued the evangelization of and held the office for twenty years of episcopate. He was buried in St. Peter. Gregory of Tours, who came to Autun two centuries after his death, said he saw a great veneration on his tomb. The grave stone dust was reputed to cure all ills. The abbot of Saint-Quentin in Vermandois wishing to obtain the relics of the saint who was in great miracles made the request to Modon bishop of Autun. He obtained the precious relic, and the body was taken to his monastery around the year 820. Charles the Bald restored the reliquary with a magnificent reliquary stored in the crypt of the Basilica of Saint-Quentin. Highly revered in the Middle Ages, there were many celebrations of this saint, 1 January, February 9, 2 May, July 16, November 14, many dates of events in his life, like his arrival in Autun, his ordination and the various dates translations of his reliques.

  • Cassiano (... – Autun, IV secolo) è stato vescovo di Autun nel IV secolo, venerato come santo dalla Chiesa cattolica. La più antica attestazione sul vescovo Cassiano è quella contenuta nel De gloria confessorum di Gregorio di Tours (fine VI secolo), che testimonia di aver visto la sua tomba a Autun, assieme a quella di san Simplicio, sulla quale accorrevano numerosi malati per essere guariti.

Retizio prese parte al concilio di Arles nel 314, per cui l'episcopato di Cassiano è successivo a questa data, e prima del 346, anno in cui sembra documentato il vescovo Simplicio. Di san Cassiano esiste una Vita databile al IX secolo e fort suspecte, secondo la quale Cassiano, nativo di Alessandria d'Egitto, fu fatto vescovo di Orta in Egitto al tempo dell'imperatore Gioviano (363-364); lasciata la sua diocesi, si recò in Gallia e fu accolto a Autun dal vescovo Simplicio, a cui succedette dopo quattro anni; governò la Chiesa di Autun per 20 anni. Questi dati e la successione cronologica non sono tuttavia compatibili con la testimonianza di Gregorio di Tours. Le varianti presenti nella tradizione testuale della Vita hanno fatto di Cassiano un vescovo di Ostia o di Orte nella Tuscia. Menzionato al 5 agosto nel martirologio geronimiano, da qui la sua commemorazione passò nel Martirologio Romano redatto dal Baronio. L'odierno martirologio, riformato a norma dei decreti del concilio Vaticano II, ricorda il santo vescovo con queste parole: (it)
