medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and
culture
Hi, Diane
Quite right, I was thinking of Enda. I quote Butler ( vol. 1, 656),
"With
St Finnian of Clonard, St. Enda was the father of monachism in Ireland
..."
but the entry on Finnian (vol. 4, 544-5) does not repeat the claim.
Sorry I
did not think to check that before.
Have you looked at the very out-of-date works cited by Butler?
Best wishes,
Bernadette
