Legend of St Brendan

The life of the Irish saint Brendan was exceedingly popular in medieval times and remains so today, we discover in this impressive bibliography. Burgess (French, U. of Liverpool) and Strijbosch (Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences, she wrote her dissertation on the saint) have organized the bibliography into two major sections, with annotations for most entries. The first lists all the (Latin) medieval works which include the life of Saint Brendan, the Navigation of St. Brendan (some believe he was the first to discover America), and legends associated with the saint. The second part compiles secondary studies. Distributed by ISBS. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
