Book Description
This is the voice of Michael Joseph Purtock, international phenomenon, yet mortal victim of a small Irish town. He recalls his childhood in a remote bogland village; how he quickly learned that he was not like other children. By the age of eight he had become a legend. Thirty years later, despite wealth and fame, he was an outcast, even from those who loved him most. Whether you view this highly original novel as a tale of bigotry and persecution, oblique detective story, or as a startling evocation of a landscape previously neglected by Irish fiction, one thing is certain: it will be a long time before you forget the mysterious world of Tonelemona and its self-styled Alchemist of Love. --Publisher description.

Medieval St Andrews
Author: Michael Brown
Publisher: Boydell & Brewer
ISBN: 178327168X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
First extended treatment of the city of St Andrews during the middle ages. St Andrews was of tremendous significance in medieval Scotland. Its importance remains readily apparent in the buildings which cluster the rocky promontory jutting out into the North Sea: the towers and walls of cathedral, castleand university provide reminders of the status and wealth of the city in the Middle Ages. As a centre of earthly and spiritual government, as the place of veneration for Scotland's patron saint and as an ancient seat of learning, St Andrews was the ecclesiastical capital of Scotland. This volume provides the first full study of this special and multi-faceted centre throughout its golden age. The fourteen chapters use St Andrews as a focus for the discussion of multiple aspects of medieval life in Scotland. They examine church, spirituality, urban society and learning in a specific context from the seventh to the sixteenth century, allowing for the consideration of St Andrews alongside other great religious and political centres of medieval Europe. Michael Brown is Professor of Medieval Scottish History, University of St Andrews; Katie Stevenson is Keeper of Scottish History and Archaeology, National Museums Scotland and Senior Lecturer in Late Medieval History, University of St Andrews. Contributors: Michael Brown, Ian Campbell, David Ditchburn, Elizabeth Ewan, Richard Fawcett, Derek Hall, Matthew Hammond, Julian Luxford, Roger Mason, Norman Reid, Bess Rhodes, Catherine Smith, Katie Stevenson, Simon Taylor, Tom Turpie.
