Jocelyn of Furness
Jocelyn of Furness〔Jocelyne, Jocelin.〕 (fl. 1175-1214) was an English Cistercian hagiographer, known for his Lives of Saint Waltheof, Saint Patrick, Saint Kentigern and Saint Helena.
He was a monk of Furness Abbey (now in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria), and translated or adapted Celtic hagiographical material for Anglo-Norman readers. He wrote for Jocelyn, Bishop of Glasgow, a Life of Kentigern, and for John de Courcy and Thomas (Tommaltach), Archbishop of Armagh a Life of St Patrick. His Life of Waltheof was written to promote the cult of a former abbot of Melrose. The Life of St Helena was probably commissioned by a female community in England. Another work attributed to him was a book of British bishops.〔Koch, John T. (2006) ''Celtic Culture: a historical encyclopedia''; p. 1037.〕〔http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/06324a.htm〕〔http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=38348〕
It has been claimed that he was also Abbot of Rushen Abbey, and an architect,〔http://www.isle-of-man.com/manxnotebook/iomnhas/v022p131.htm〕 but this is one of several different identifications which have been put forward.
Jocelyn's writings are the topic of a major survey by Helen Birkett.〔Helen Birkett, ''The Saints Lives of Jocelin of Furness: Hagiography, Patronage and Ecclesiastical Politics'' (Woodbridge, 2010)〕 and a volume of conference proceedings.〔Clare Downham (ed.) ''Jocelin of Furness: Essays from the 2011 Conference'' (Donington, 2013)〕
