Description
Abstract (cited)

This paper examines how Adomnán deploys scripture and the landscape of Iona to depict Columba as a Christ-like figure. This re-casting is done not just for spiritual/religious reasons but in pursuit of clear ecclesiological and political goals in the context of an increasingly hostile ecclesiastical and secular environment.
