Abstract:
In the preface to his edition of the ninth-century Book of Cerne (Cambridge, University Library, MS L1. 1.10), A. B. Kuypers notes “two great currents of influence, two distinct spirits, Irish and Roman” at work in the composition of the prayers in this private devotional book. Moreover, Kuypers asserts that “these influences are traceable through the whole range of the strictly devotional literature of the period.” Since it is generally acknowledged that the two great forces shaping the early Anglo-Saxon church were the Roman missionaries in the south and Irish monks in the north, it is reaso

Abstract:
An important piece of early Irish literary material, Óengus’ dream bears several similarities with Oscar Wilde’s The Fisherman and his Soul. It will be demonstrated that liminality (from limen meaning “threshold” in Latin), as epitomized by the presence of water in both tales, can be interpreted as a passage to the Otherworld. It is the liminal and otherworldly aspect of water that brings into existence the universal human aspiration towards the supernatural unification with the cosmos and the theme of all-encompassing love; recurrent topoi in Irish literature from the very beginnings until to

Abstract:
The significant contribution of the mendicant orders, and especially the Franciscans, to medieval European and English literature has for long been a subject of much detailed examination by scholars. It has been argued that the spiritual ethos and style of communication to society of the Franciscans, articulated by St Francis himself, brought about a greater use of vernacular languages throughout Europe in lyrical poetry and preaching and in catechetical and devotional texts. While earlier religious communities had fostered certain types of texts, such as exegetical works and saints’ lives, th

Abstract This paper offers the first survey of evidence for the translation of Middle English literature beyond the English-speaking world in the medieval period. It identifies and discusses translations in five vernaculars: Welsh, Irish, Old Norse-Icelandic, Dutch, and Portuguese. The paper examines the contexts in which such translation took place and considers the role played by colonial, dynastic, trading, and ecclesiastical networks in the transmission of these works. It argues that English is in the curious position of being a vernacular with a reasonable international reach in translati

Abstract:
The cross of Christ in the Middle Ages was the most powerful symbol of God’s victory over sin, death and the forces of evil, while also representing the most abject suffering and degradation of Jesus Christ, the God-Man. A simplistic reading of the evolution of the theology of the cross during this period posits a transition from the early medieval victorious and heroic Christ figure, reigning and triumphant upon the cross, to a late medieval emaciated and tortured object of pity whose ignominious death was supposed to elicit heartfelt compassion for his plight and sincere sorrow for the sin w

This paper researches how slang is transferred from a source text into a target text, using the example of the chapter ‘Circe’ from the Irish novel Ulysses by James Joyce and the challenges faced by the translator Mircea Ivănescu when rendering English and Irish slang in Romanian. In addition, the paper deals with a view on structural perspectives of slang in Ulysses, the composition of which began in 1914. It was published in 1922 and is considered to be one of the most difficult works of literature to read. The range of styles that the writer uses is one of the reasons that the book is held

<p>At the community of Little Gidding from the late 1620s through the 1640s, in a special room known as the Concordance Chamber, Mary Ferrar, Anna Collett, and their sisters sliced apart printed Bibles and engravings, then pasted them back together into elaborate collages of text and image that harmonize the four gospels into a single narrative. They then bound these books between elaborate covers using a method taught to them by a bookbinder's daughter from Cambridge. The resulting volumes were so meticulously designed that one family member described the process as "a new kind of printing."

It begins with a survey of the historiography surrounding Emmet Larkin’s devotional revolution thesis of 1972, highlighting how recent scholarship has opened up hitherto overlooked avenues of enquiry. While today few would argue for a sudden devotional watershed moment in Ireland from 1850, this chapter demonstrates how developments in devotional practice in England, Scotland, and Wales show a mixture of continuity and change, in what has more recently been termed a process of ‘devo

Abstract In the long eighteenth century, the years leading up to Catholic emancipation in Britain and Ireland have often been characterized as a ‘silent’ period in Catholic literature and culture. This is reflected in John Henry Newman’s ‘second spring’ sermon as well as in scholarly accounts of the modern Catholic literary revival and early modern recusant writing. A closer formal and historical examination, however, reveals that, in addition to literary achievements by John Dryden and Alexander Pope, Catholic writing in English during this period underwent a much more complex, extensive, and

While this area has enjoyed increased scholarly attention in recent years, the writings of English, Irish, Welsh, and Scottish Catholics have seldom been studied alongside each other. This survey examines these works under three broad categories: devotional prose and pastoral care; devotional poetry; and hagiography and biography (including martyrology).

Abstract This chapter traces the development of Catholicism in Welsh, Irish Gaelic, and Scottish Gaelic vernacular literature. In Ireland, the outbreak of hostilities in 1641 dealt a major blow to the catechetical, hagiographical, and historical projects of the Irish Franciscans in Leuven, leading to a petering out of their influential publishing programme. The chapter explores Irish responses to major events, such as the Confederate Wars and the rise of Jacobitism, in Gaelic literature in the period, and how these events featured in literary representations of Ireland’s past, present, and fut
