Journeys on the Edges
“A valuable antidote to the wishful thinking and misconceptions that bedevil much recent writing about the Celtic tradition . . . . O’Loughlin incisively and eloquently explores the witness of early Christian Ireland, especially for what it reveals about spirituality today.”–Richard Woods, OP
This fresh and original introduction to Celtic spirituality begins by questioning the very notion of a distinctively “Celtic” tradition. Brilliantly re-examining the original sources, O’Loughlin argues that there is one over-arching theme that gives the Celtic approaches unity–the idea of being “on the edge,” both culturally and geographically.
