Summary
John Scotus Eriugena lived in Ireland during the early ninth century. Neither monk nor priest but a ‘holy sage’, he carried the flower of Celtic Christianity to France. His homily, The Voice of the Eagle, is a jewel of lyrical mysticism, theology and cosmology, containing the essence of Celtic Christian wisdom.

What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Christopher Bamford has written a wonderful book. It combines a rigour of scholarship with a lyrical unveiling of how this wonderful text of Eriugena’s can resonate with the hungers and discoveries of our times. It deserves a wide readership. John O’Donohue, author of Anam Cara.”
