 Saint Marina the Monk
Léon Clugnet states that the confusion pertaining to all of the other saints named Marina is due to the translators and the copyists’ attribution of the saint’s origins to their own countries or other countries that they felt better fit the Saint’s life.
It is believed that relics of Saint Marina the Monk, except for her left hand which was kept at the Monastery of Qannoubine, were transferred to Constantinople and from there to Venice, Italy.
Clugnet resolves that until new discoveries are made, the only origin of Saint Marina must be the one known to us according to tradition and since the only tradition about this Saint is found among the Maronites of Lebanon, then Lebanon is to be considered the land of her birth (Clugnet 1904: 565).

 SAINT LOUIS MARIE DE MONTFORT AND THE BÉRULLIAN SCHOOL
Saint Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort (1673-1716),[1] "the last of the great Bérullians"[2] has considerably contributed to the renown and popularity of the French School of spirituality.
It is especially Saint Louis de Montfort's explanation of the essential marian dimension of consecration that has won for this vagabond missionary the special praise of the magisterium and popularity among the people of God.
It appears to be clear that Saint Louis de Montfort depends heavily upon the Bérullian school of spirituality and is, in fact, one of its greatest proponents.

 Popes/Bishops
Moreover, Saint Louis Marie’s recourse to Pope Clement XI to resolve a fundamental crisis in his life is also a significant sign, not only for the communities he founded, but for all who follow his steps.
Saint Louis Marie stipulates that his missionaries should have people renew their baptismal promises in accordance with the order received from the pope (RM 56).
Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort was a loner in his time, a kind of unpredictable bastion of the religious life, totally outside the austere and rather conformist norms in which the ideal of priesthood was firmly set at the time.

 David Bedggood: "Saint Jacques: Derrida and the Ghost of Marxism"
Thus, history becomes a mere history of illusory ideas, a history of spirits and ghosts, while the real, empirical history that forms the basis of this ghostly history is only utilised to provide bodies for these ghosts; from it are borrowed the names required to clothe these ghosts with the appearance of reality.
Therefore, the Marxist counter to Derrida's apologetics for capitalism is to be found in reclaiming the dialectical method that Marx applies in the German Ideology and which Lukacs, Lenin and Trotsky attempt to develop in the unity of theory and practice of the revolutionary party.
Compare Benjamin who sought to eliminate the "autonomous individual" of bourgeois culture and replace him/her with the critical intellectual who used dialectial materialism to destroy capitalism by means of critique which could explode the contradiction in the commodity at its point of highest tension -- the dialectical image (Pensky, 1993; Lowy, 1996; Wohlfarth, 1996).
