More about the book
The portrayal of Saint Patrick as the quintessential Irish figure is steeped in misconceptions. Contrary to popular belief, he was not Irish, nor the first Christian missionary in Ireland, and the legendary tales of him driving snakes from the island are unfounded. The seminar paper explores the stark contrast between the modern secular celebrations of Saint Patrick's Day and its traditional religious roots, which date back to the ninth century. It delves into the historical context of Saint Patrick's life, revealing a more nuanced understanding of this iconic figure.
