Synopsis

Explore a window into early Irish religious life and learning. This volume presents selections from the Würzburg Glosses, edited by Thomas Olden, offering a window into medieval Irish scholarship and its connections with continental Christianity and monastic practice. It traces how Irish monasticism links to Egyptian and Indian influences and chronicles the impact of Danish rule on church life and manuscript culture.

- See discussions of monks, abbots, and the spread of monastic rules, with notes on influences from Egypt and India.
- Discover how political change shaped literature, learning, and the transmission of texts across seas.
- Read about legendary Irish saints, their ascetic practices, and how these stories reflect broader spiritual ideas.

Ideal for readers of medieval church history, Irish studies, and the history of religious texts.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
