Uinseann Ó Maidín, O.C.R.
Number One Hundred Sixty-two of Cistercian Studies Series
“Monastic life, traditionally held to have been imported from Egypt, flourished across the Irish Sea, and irish travellers quickly came under its influence. Saint Enda, after returning from Candida Casa (Whithorn), founded his monastery on Aran Island, giving Ireland what was probably its first monastery and also setting the direction to life in seclusion for many centuries to come. [...]The primary purpose of these translations has been to present early irish monastic documents to as wide a reading public as possible in the hope that their doctrinal content will become more widely known, understood, and used.”
