After Columbanus was expelled from Luxeuil, he journeyed to Paris and Metz. Theudebert, ruler of Austrasia, proposed that Columbanus found a monastery on the eastern edges of his kingdom. Columbanus consented and led his monks to the Lake Constance area, where they engaged in a failed missionary attempt. They angered the local populace with their forceful proselytization and were soon driven out of the region. Columbanus resumed his initial plan to relocate to Italy, but one of his monks, Gallus, was left behind and later set up a small hermitage near the Steinach stream. Jonas of Bobbio described the entire episode in terms of mission, but Columbanus was not literally a missionary. His Alamannian activities are best understood when compared to his other attempts at monastic foundation. This chapter explores the political undertones of the Alamannian mission, the reasons for its ultimate failure, and the later achievements of Gallus.

The Devil

In his Vita Columbani Jonas of Bobbio provides the earliest instance of an interpretatio Christiana of the Alamannic god Woden, unequivocally identifying him with the devil. The significance of Jonas’s story about Columbanus and the pagan Alamanni does not lie in its preservation of any authentic details of Alamannic ritual, but rather in the fact that this is the oldest instance of interpretatio Christiana in the Germanic-speaking world.
