Summary |
"Boulogne-Sur-Mer" by William Canon Fleming is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The primary focus of the book is to explore the birthplace of St. Patrick, tracing arguments and historical narratives that suggest he was born in Boulogne-sur-Mer (formerly known as Bononia). Fleming meticulously examines various theories and historical figures related to St. Patrick, presenting a compelling case for his connections to this region and its significance in the history of Christianity in Ireland. The opening of the work introduces the reader to the historical context of St. Patrick's life and the debate surrounding his origins. It provides insights into the biographical details of St. Patrick, such as his parentage, early captivity, and the various locations associated with his birth. The author references ancient texts and traditions that attribute St. Patrick's birthplace to Boulogne, linking historical events and figures that shaped the narrative of his life, including his family's descent and his eventual role as the Apostle of Ireland. Thus, the beginning sets the stage for a detailed exploration of both St. Patrick's legacy and the town of Boulogne-Sur-Mer within that rich tapestry. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
