This complete translation of the Vita Sancti Brendani (from Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Rawlinson B 485, a version which incorporates the Navigatio), and of the Oratio attributed to him, offers the first full portrait in English of Brendan not only as the saintly hero of the popular Navigatio but also as an emblem of the Gaelic people, their struggles and their aspirations over the long arc of Irish history.
