Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dove of White Flame: A Historical Novel About Saint Columba aims to enter the sixth-century world of Saint Columba--also known as Colmcille--as vividly as possible while maintaining historical accuracy. It aims to give the reader a taste of sixth-century Ireland and Scotland, known then as Eriu and Alba, with their sights and sounds and smells, and a feel for Saint Columba's character, growth, and inner spirit. The reader will meet his parents, his family, his friends, his teachers, his fellow monks, and his inspirers, as well as his enemies--all of them people who really lived. The reader will follow the saint through miracles, sea voyages, successes and humiliations, confrontations, plague, pirates, angels, a monster, and even the famous "Battle of the Books," and will see something of his great love for nature, for God, for his fellow humans, and for the Psalms of David which were his spiritual daily bread. Apart from a very short prologue, which gives a description of the appearance of the saint in adulthood, the book starts with his mother's pregnancy and ends with his remarkable and beautiful death.

Book excerpt: An appealing introductory series in small format, with colorful, attractive covers and easy-to-read texts illustrated with Celtic symbols. These accounts of the lives and writings of four Celtic saints each contain a brief introduction giving historical and ecclesiastical background followed by selections from the original sources. Founder of the Abbey of Iona, Columba sailed from Ireland in the 6th century to bring Christianity to the remote and hostile lands of the Picts. Born 30 years after Columba's death, Adamnan, who became the 9th Abbot of Iona, gathered the extraordinary legends kept in memory of "faithful men who knew", and recorded them in his famous Life of St. Columba. Selections from these glorious prophecies and mystical epiphanies are presented here, together with the final moving description of Columba's death.

Download or read book Columba written by Ian Bradley and published by Wild Goose Publications. This book was released on 2013-07-24 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around 563AD a monk called Columba set off in a small boat with a few companions from the shores of his native Donegal, in the north-west tip of Ireland. Some time later they landed on the tiny island of Iona off the west coast of Scotland. Their journey is rightly perceived as one of the most significant events in the early Christian history of the British Isles. lan Bradley examines the life, character and achievements of St Columba and attempts to strip away the layers of myth and historical distortion that have grown up around him. He also explores the distinctive nature of Columban Christianity and its message - not always a comfortable one - for us today.
Download or read book Life of St Columba written by Adomnan of Iona and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 1995-02-23 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Founding father of the famous monastery on the island of Iona, a site of pilgrimage ever since his death in 597, St Columba was born into one of the ruling families in Ireland at a time of immense expansion for the Irish Church. This account of his life, written by Adomnán - the ninth abbot of Iona, and a distant relative of St Columba - describes his travels from Ireland to Scotland and his mission in the cause of Celtic Christianity there. Written 100 years after St Columba's death, it draws on written and oral traditions to depict a wise abbot among his monks, who like Christ was capable of turning water into wine, controlling sea-storms and raising the dead. An engaging account of one of the central figures in the 'Age of Saints', this is a major work of early Irish and Scottish history.
