Name
Jocelinus of Furness on the Conversion of Man and the Islands (A.D. 1112)
Description
A Latin and English transcription of Jocelinus of Furness's 12th-century account of Saint Patrick's conversion of the Isle of Man and other islands to Christianity around A.D. 444. The text details Patrick's appointment of Bishop Germanus to Man and his establishment of the episcopal seat at what is now called Saint Patrick's Island (Jurby Point). While primarily ecclesiastical and hagiographical in nature, this source provides foundational context for understanding Man's medieval Christian governance and institutional structures that persisted into the 18th century.
