Lewis, Barry, “The strange Irish career of St Cybi of Holyhead”, Peritia 32 (2021): 163–180.
- journal article
Two Lives of St Cybi of Holyhead, Anglesey, in a manuscript of the late twelfth century, recount how the saint spent a period in Ireland. Though superficially following a common hagiographical narrative trope - peregrinatio, with founding of churches - this story is very peculiar in that Cybi is repeatedly persecuted by a second saint, and ultimately forced to withdraw. This paper discusses the Irish geography of the narrative and its possible significance.
