Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Twelfth Century Anglo-French Version of the Voyage of St. Brandan to Hell and to the Terrestrial Paradise In many productions of early times. In Book XI of the Odyssey, Homer'describes the descent of Ulysses into the realm of Pluto where souls were punished after death. Plato in Book X of the fnpublic in the story of Her describes the future life of both the blessed and unblessed. The Romans in their imitative style borrowed the notion from the Greeks and in Cicero's hepublic, the dream of Scipio is a parallel to the dream.of Her. Virgil's Aeneid in Book I reveals the same belief. -he introduction of Christianitv deveiops the idea most fully.. He early Christians in their intense religious fervor devote themselves almost exclusively to the attainment of future happiness. Their excess of religious sentiment makes them.desirous of seeing the abode of the blessed before it is time. Erchance they undertook some few voyages with that end in view. At least they gave full rein to their imaginations and many wonderful voyages for the purpose of discovering the seat of future joy are recorded.

Book The Legend of St Brendan

Download or read book The Legend of St Brendan written by Jude Mackley and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008-06-30 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Legend of St Brendan is a study of two accounts of a voyage undertaken by Brendan, a sixth-century Irish saint. The immense popularity of the Latin version encouraged many vernacular translations, including a twelfth-century Anglo-Norman reworking of the narrative which excises much of the devotional material seen in the ninth-century Navigatio Sancti Brendani abbatis and changes the emphasis, leaving a recognisably secular narrative. The vernacular version focuses on marvellous imagery and the trials and tribulations of a long sea-voyage. Together the two versions demonstrate a movement away from hagiography towards adventure. Studies of the two versions rarely discuss the elements of the fantastic. Following a summary of authorship, audiences and sources, this comparative study adopts a structural approach to the two versions of the Brendan narrative. It considers what the fantastic imagery achieves and addresses issues raised with respect to theological parallels.
