An account of the history and myth of this 7th century Irish bishop. The Life of Moling is hagiography. It is not biography or a strict historical record. The author's scholarly analysis of the text shows us how to interpret the text and draw out a wealth of knowledge that would be missed by anyone who would read the extant text as if it were modern biography or who would dismiss it on the ground that it contains little or no historical data. ""Thorough and erudite...An important contribution to literary scholarship, and indicates a need for reappraisal of hagiography as a source of theology.""--The Furrow.
