Home›Clergy, Theologians & Religious Officials›Gender›MaleBrowse ByMaleThis page groups historical religious figures by gender, letting a visitor separate, for example, the women prophets and mystics a tradition recorded from the men. Wikipedia defines gender as "the range of social, psychological, cultural, and behavioral aspects of being a man (or boy), woman (or girl), or portraying a third gender." Many traditions recorded far fewer women in positions of religious authority, so this grouping also shows that imbalance directly.FactsMaleConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsDirectoryCategoryWell-attestedHistorical Figures 1MaleFilter Results90 entriesTraditionAllChristianity (78)Zoroastrianism (1)EraAll1013 to 1054 (1)1018 to 1078 (1)1079 to 1142 (1)1094 to 1148 (1)1119 to 1170 (1)1120 to 1196 (1)1135 to 1202 (1)1190 to 1260 (1)1360 to 1428 (1)1402 to 1471 (1)1499 to 1569 (1)155 to 220 (1)1583 to 1645 (1)1599 to 1671 (1)1605 to 1681 (1)1620 to 1682 (1)1663 to 1728 (1)1720 to 1772 (1)1725 to 1807 (1)1743 to 1805 (1)1746 to 1818 (1)1748 to 1830 (1)1768 to 1834 (1)1780 to 1842 (1)1780 to 1849 (1)1803 to 1882 (1)1809 to 1891 (1)1811 to 1893 (1)1821 to 1846 (1)1822 to 1889 (1)1828 to 1898 (1)1831 to 1917 (1)1834 to 1915 (1)1879 to 1977 (1)1884 to 1976 (1)1886 to 1968 (1)1889 to 1966 (1)1891 to 1979 (1)1892 to 1971 (1)1893 to 1992 (1)1895 to 1979 (1)1899 to 1981 (1)1912 to 1969 (1)1918 to 2018 (1)1922 to 2010 (1)1926 to 1982 (1)1929 to 1968 (1)200 to 258 (1)220 to 293 (1)256 to 336 (1)260 to 340 (1)270 to 355 (1)301 to 374 (1)311 to 383 (1)335 to 414 (1)354 to 418 (1)386 to 451 (1)530 to 600 (1)538 to 594 (1)780 to 856 (1)815 to 885 (1)826 to 869 (1)85 to 160 (1)991 to 1033 (1)Place of ActivityAllAndalusia (1)Berlin (2)Birmingham (1)Bonn (1)Boston (2)Bulgaria (1)Byblos (1)Carlisle (1)Carthage (3)China (1)Cincinnati (1)Constantinople (3)Czechia (2)Egypt (1)England (2)France (1)Georgia (2)Germany (3)Greece (1)Hungary (1)India (1)Iran (1)Ireland (1)Israel (1)Italy (4)Jerusalem (1)Kentucky (2)Leiden (1)Lisbon (1)London (1)Lund (1)Macau (1)Milan (1)Montgomery (1)Montreal (1)Moscow (3)Münster (1)Nashville (1)New Jersey (1)New York (2)North Africa (1)Oxford (1)Paris (11)Pennsylvania (1)Philadelphia (1)Prague (1)Romania (1)Rome (3)Saint Petersburg (1)Siberia (1)Spain (2)Syria (1)Trier (1)Tunisia (1)Turkey (3)United States (7)Voronezh (1)West Africa (2)Zurich (1)Zwolle (1)HistoricityAllHistorically attested (90)Veneration StatusAllFormally Canonized or Sainted (15)Historically Significant but Not Venerated (35)Officially Recognized or Venerated (28)Popularly or Locally Venerated (1)Manner Of DeathAllAssassinated (2)Died by accident or misadventure (3)Died of natural causes (24)Disputed (2)Executed (4)Martyred (1)NationalityAllAncient Egypt (1)Ancient Greece (1)Byzantine Empire (3)Canada (1)France (5)Germany (6)Ireland (1)Italy (4)Kingdom of Great Britain (1)Kingdom of Prussia (1)Lebanon (1)Ostrogothic Kingdom (1)Portugal (1)Province of Massachusetts Bay (1)Roman Empire (8)Russia (7)Sasanian Empire (1)South Korea (1)Spain (4)Sweden (1)Switzerland (2)The Byzantine Empire (1)The Dutch Republic (1)Tsardom of Russia (1)United Kingdom (8)United States (17)Member OfAllAfrican Methodist Episcopal Church (2)Church of Sweden (1)Churches of Christ (1)Old Believers (1)Revered InAllChristianity (73)Unitarian Universalism (1)Zoroastrianism (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 40KartirMaleLouis of GranadaMaleMalachy of ArmaghMaleMarcionMaleMartin Luther King JrMaleMaurice de SullyMaleMaximus the ConfessorMaleMeric CasaubonMaleMethodius of ThessalonicaMaleMichael PsellosMaleMiguel de MolinosMaleNestoriusMaleNiceta of RemesianaMaleNicholas of CusaMalePatriarch Nikon of MoscowMalePavel FlorenskyMalePelagiusMalePeter AbelardMalePierre Teilhard de ChardinMaleRabanus MaurusMaleRalph Waldo EmersonMaleRaymond FranzMaleRegino of PrümMaleReinhold NiebuhrMaleRichard of Saint VictorMaleRudolf BultmannMaleSabelliusMaleSamuel Ajayi CrowtherMaleSergei BulgakovMaleSilouan the AthoniteMaleTertullianMaleThomas BecketMaleThomas MertonMaleThomas of CelanoMaleTikhon of ZadonskMaleVenantius FortunatusMaleWilliam Ellery ChanningMaleWilliam LawMaleWilliam PaleyMaleWulfilaMaleShowing 51 to 90 of 90, page 2 of 2.← Previous12ConnectionsAssociated WithIran, Countries Well-attested This source names Iran directly: "and the high priesthood of Zoroastrian Iran, since holding a religious office is the common thread rather than any one tradition."Source Divinity Atlas Directory Prose, First Edition Category Descriptionstier 1Rome, Cities Well-attested This source names Rome directly: "the temple officials of pre-Christian Rome and the high priesthood of Zoroastrian Iran, since holding a religious office is the common thread rather than any one tradition."Source Divinity Atlas Directory Prose, First Edition Category Descriptionstier 1Sources1.
