Synopsis

The Birth and Life of St. Moling is a vivid medieval account of a cleric who faces danger, faith, and miracles. This edition pairs the original manuscript with a translation and glossary, helping you understand the tale’s world.

In the narrative, Moling navigates threats from powerful foes, seeks holy water, and relies on prayer to guide him. The story blends miracle, conflict, and a cleric’s steadfast courage, offering a window into early Irish hagiography.

The book presents a complete sense of place—the Barrow, the monastery, and the surrounding people—through dramatic episodes and devotional reflections. The text includes a translation and glossary to aid modern readers in following the lore and language.
