The Remains of St (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents English blank verse translations of two historic texts by St. Patrick, a missionary who played a pivotal role in spreading Christianity in Ireland during the 5th century. The texts, known as the Confessio and the Coroticus Epistle, are considered authentic writings of St. Patrick himself and offer unique insights into the life, motivations, and challenges faced by the saint during his mission. The Confessio is an autobiography that reveals Patrick's journey from his youth as a captive in Ireland to his calling as a missionary, while the Coroticus Epistle is a letter expressing his outrage over the enslavement of baptized Christians. Through these writings, readers gain an intimate understanding of Patrick's unwavering faith, his struggles against adversity, and his determination to spread the message of Christianity amidst a pagan society. This book holds great significance for those interested in early Christian history, the life of St. Patrick, and the role of missionaries in shaping the course of religious belief.
