Decanonization

Icon of Anna of Kashin (mid-17th century), decanonized in 1677–1678

Decanonization or de-canonization (prefix de- ← Latin: de  preposition: down, from, away[1][2] + Latin: canonizatioGreek: κανών – list, catalog[3][4][5][6][7]) – exclusion of a person's name from the list, catalog; the opposite of canonization. The list or catalog is the calendar of the saints[8][9] or the church calendar. Decanonization, the exclusion of the saint's name from the calendars, was carried out in the Russian Orthodox Church,[10][11] in the Catholic Church[12][13][14][15] and in the Anglican Church.[16][17]
