But what of monasticism in Ireland during the intervening period? Regarded as different from ' mainstream' Anglo-Saxon and continental monasticism, monastic life in Ireland has not been fully understood in scholarly discussions about the existence of distinct ' monasticisms' throughout Christianity. The Irish sources, many written in the vernacular, are not accessible and are viewed as unconventional. The secularization of monasticism in Ireland has overshadowed evidence for a thriving lived monasticism. This major study concentrates on those men and women who followed a monastic life, especially between the tenth and thirteenth centuries, and who maintained a universal monastic ideology while incorporating monasticism into their own cultural environment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edel Bhreathnach\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1801511179\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781801511179\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Four Courts Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/16\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 540\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Edel Bhreathnach","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46747899330815,"sku":"9781801511179","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fb8c1abd-ec53-46ed-86ae-8d337ba7e597.jpg?v=1743585062","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/monasticism-in-ireland-ad-900-1250-edel-bhreathnach-9781801511179","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
