Hagiography is the study of saints.

- A hagiography refers literally to writings on the subject of such holy persons; and specifically, the biography of ecclesiastical and secular leaders, canonized by the Christian Church.
- Hagiology, by contrast, is the study of saints collectively, without focusing on the life of an individual saint.
