Shining or glowing brightly all around something; radiating light in all directions.
From Latin circumfulgent (shining around), combining circum- and fulgent (shining), from fulgere (to shine). Used in literary and poetic contexts.
Medieval and Renaissance writers used this to describe saints with halos or the sun—the word itself seems to glow with its meaning, combining 'fulg' (which sounds like brightness itself) with the encircling 'circum'.
