context_page_description: Maria Bagnesi was an Italian Roman Catholic professed member of the Third Order of Saint Dominic. Bagnesi remained confided to her bed for most of her life after falling ill upon receiving news that her father arranged a marriage for her - she escaped this fate but remained in her room where people flocked to seek her counsel. Due to her devotion to Bartholomew the Apostle she assumed the name of "Bartolomea" and added it to her name as a sort of middle name.
  The confirmation of the late Bagnesi's longstanding local 'cultus' allowed for Pope Pius VII to approve her beatification in 1804.
context_section_description: Her local 'cultus' (or popular devotion) received confirmation on 11 July 1804 allowed for Pope Pius VII to approve her beatification. Her liturgical feast is celebrated on an annual basis on the date of her death - or her 'dies natalis' (birth into heaven).
