by Catherine Thom (Author)
An exploration of the ascetical theology and praxis of sixth to eighth century Irish monasticism as a radical response to the gospel. This book claims that the radicality of this response arose from the cultural consciousness of the Celts. It concentrates on the Irish Celts and uses a variety of sources including pre and post-Christian elements.
