Abstract:
“I have surveyed an enormous amount of material in the preceding pages” is Keith Busby’s comment on his book (p. 419). True enough. Seldom has an author treated Ireland’s early literature as ambitiously as he does, and Busby’s achievement is the more remarkable given the scantiness of the material. French literature surviving from medieval Ireland is (like literature in English) interesting but meagre. These texts of the twelfth to fourteenth centuries being few, the author fleshes out his material with writing on Ireland from Britain and the Continent, including legends of Arthur and of the Irish princess Iseult or Isolde. That at once makes French in Medieval Ireland essential for Romance scholars, as well as for medievalists concerned with the Irish.

Abstract:
These verses were written by the Irish poet to express his grief at the impact of the Williamite victory at the battle of the Boyne and all that followed for Ireland. They were chosen two hundred years later by the historian Edmund Curtis to make clear his attitude towards Ireland’s past. In 1923, just after home rule was secured for what was officially known as Saorstát Éireann (Irish Free State), he published his history of medieval Ireland, and where a dedication would normally be printed he inserted ‘The Absentee Lordship’ and followed it with these verses. In doing this, Curtis left no doubt that in his view medieval Ireland was a lordship wrongfully attached to the English crown and that it should rightfully have been a kingdom under its own native dynastic ruler. For this he was subsequently denounced as unhistorical, and to this day, especially in the view of the so-called revisionists, he is commonly regarded as not only out of date, but dangerous as well. It was argued that Curtis used the medieval past to justify the emergence of a self-governing state in Ireland. To quote just one example, Steven Ellis, the best of the medieval revisionists, wrote in 1987 that ‘historians like Edmund Curtis concentrated on such topics as friction between the Westminster and Dublin governments, the Gaelic revival, the Great Earl uncrowned king of Ireland, the blended race and the fifteenth-century home rule movement’.

Abstract:
Medieval archaeology in Ireland has been described twice in the last 30 years as ‘in its infancy’, by Delaney (1977: 46) andby Barry (1987: 1). Neither was strictly correct. Ireland played a full part in the general English interest in medieval castles and churches around 1900, with Champneys, Orpen and Westropp in particular listing and describing them and relating to their historical and European context. In Ulster the medieval period had occupied a central place in archaeological research and excavation, rcmarkable within Europe and unique within the British Isles, from 1950 (Tope 1966).

Abstract:
Two proxies are best suited to an investigation of animal exploitation in medieval Ireland, the historical record and the zooarchaeological record. Extensive analyses of both have been brought together here to address this topic. In selecting period documents to include in the study, an attempt was made t.o cover the various historical traditions seen in medieval Ireland; this includes Irish annals, Anglo-Norman administratixe documents, and narrative histories and observations from medieval writers. One of the more important aspects of this thesis was the accumulation of as authoritative corpus of zooarchaeological data as possible. Towards these ends, a large number ofpublished and unpublished reports have been brought together to form a complete picture ofthe state of the medieval Irish faunal record. Three new faunal assemblages, from Carrickmines Castle, Co. Dublin, Dunboyne Castle, Co. Meath, and Ballybarrack souterrain, Co. Louth, have also been analysed and included in the thesis. On a broader scale, this thesis highlights three problems in both the archaeology of medieval Ireland. The first of these is the integration of historical and archaeological data, and to what extent it is appropriate to do so. The second is a general problem within archaeology and that is the treatment of specialist reports. Too often such reports are either not fully published or not published at all, limiting or eliminating the usefulness of the data they contain. Alternatively, they are not readily accessible to researchers whom they would benefit. Finally, the state of the medieval Irish archaeological record is heavily biased towards Anglo-Norman/urban sites. This is of special significance in that, due to a lake of economic records, zooarchaeology is one ofthe few strands of evidence available which may shed light on animal exploitation in Gaelic Ireland.

O'Donnell, Thomas Charles. "The affect of fosterage in medieval Ireland." Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2017. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1570586/.

Full text
Abstract:
In this thesis I will reconstruct the emotional community created by fosterage: mark out its boundaries; describe its construction; and show how the deep love expressed by poets and characters in the saga literature for their foster-family under-pinned medieval Irish society. As I recreate the emotional community of fosterage, we see that fosterage bonds are created outside the legal framework, through providing nutrition, education, and sharing experience. In order to fully understand medieval Irish fosterage, we need to understand fosterage for love as well as for a fee. The emotional community of fosterage is recreated via a number of case studies, based on relationships within the foster family. The first chapter examines the foster father/fosterling relationship through the figure of Cú Chulainn and questions the received picture of multiple fosterage. The foster-mother relationship is the focus of the second chapter, in their role of mourning dead fosterlings and acting as guardian of memory. The third chapter asks the question who is a foster-sibling and examines the boundaries of the fosterage terminology. The language is particularly fluid in the fíanaigecht literature. The final chapters examine fosterage outside the foster family. Fosterage was employed as a metaphor in religious writings and chapter four analyses this metaphor to understand both the experience of the divine and the position of children in monasteries. Chapter five turns to fosterage between humans and animals, extended the metaphoric use of fosterage seen in earlier chapters. Looking at fosterage in this unusual setting makes the assumptions about the emotional ties it creates easier to address. Fosterage bonds were created by nurturing, educating and sharing experience and lasted throughout the participants lives. In order to appreciate the impact fosterage had on medieval Irish society we must appreciate the affective bonds it created and the affective way it was created.

Abstract:
Despite the political disunity of early Irish society, theories and expressions of national identity abounded in the work of the learned classes of clerics, genealogists, poets and lawyers. This thesis examines texts from two crucial periods in the evolution of these theories. Focusing initially on the seventh and eighth centuries, the first part of the thesis argues that Irish national identity was created as part of a campaign to assert the joint authority of the Uí Néill kings of Tara and their ecclesiastical allies in Armagh. Drawing inspiration from biblical and patristic sources, and possibly also from contemporary developments elsewhere in Europe, these ecclesiastico-political allies asserted the national unity of the Irish in linguistic, genetic and territorial terms in pursuit of their own particular objectives. The influence of biblical and patristic beliefs on many of these early expressions of Irish identity highlights the outward-looking nature of the Irish scholarly tradition. During the eleventh and twelfth centuries, this international dimension intensified as the histories and identities of foreign peoples became subjects of study in Ireland, and new source materials filtered into the country from overseas. With reference to two texts composed during this period, the Irish Sex Aetates Mundi and a poem on national characteristics beginning Cumtach na nIudaide n-ard – the second part of this thesis discusses the influence of newly acquired sources on contemporary Irish scholarship. It also examines how the information contained in these sources was adapted and rationalised to conform to the basic assumptions of Irish society.

Drain, Deirdre Frances. "A biocultural study of health in late medieval Ireland." Thesis, Queen's University Belfast, 2017. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.725833.

Full text
Abstract:
The primary aim of this study was to expand our knowledge of the health status of those living in late medieval Ireland. It sought to explore any potential differences in the health status that may have existed between those living in urban and rural environments, and between those likely to have belonged to either the Gaelic-Irish or Anglo-Norman cultural groups. A biocultural appraoch was employed in order to produce a more holistic comprehension of health status during this time. This study examined eight skeletal groups from the late medieval period in Ireland: three rural (Ballyhanna, Co. Donegal; Ardreigh, Co. Kildare; Tintern Abbey, Co. Wexford) and five urban (Joymount CFIII, Kilroot & Market Place, Co. Antrim; St. Stephen's Hospital and the Green Building, Co. Dublin). The health of these groups was determined through the analysis of palaeodemographic data and the presence of selected palaeopathological lesions. These included dental enamel hypoplasia, cribra orbitalia, porotic hyperostosis, and for the first time in Irish populations, chronic maxillary sinusitis recorded using endoscopes. The findings of this study suggest that low prevalence rates of palaeopatholigical lesions do not necessarily reflect good health. The greater longevity despite high prevalence rates int the Anglo-Norman groups of Dublin and Carrickfergus (urban) and Ardreigh (rural/proto-urban) indicates that they may have shared some sort of genetic or cultural immunological buffer to physiological stressors that their rural Gaelic-Irish contemporaries in Ballyhanna may have lacked. Findings of this studies also suggest that environmental factors such as allergens, diet, and air salinity played a significant role in the development of chronic maxillary sinusitis.
