Download or read book The Normans in Ireland written by Richard Lomas and published by Birlinn Ltd. This book was released on 2022-04-07 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Norman invasion of Britain, as depicted in the Bayeux Tapestry, is well known, but the later invasion of Ireland is much less well documented. Yet much of what we see today in Irish heritage has Norman roots. Ireland and Britain have many similarities, although relations between them have too often descended into bitterness and violence. This book goes back to the starting point of this, more than eight hundred years ago. Beginning with Irish history before the Norman invasion, the book describes how Ireland was conquered and settled by the French-speaking Normans from north-west France, whose language and culture had already come to dominate most of Britain. It looks at the creation and government of a large region called the Liberty of Leinster between 1167 and 1247, a turning point in Irish history, identifying the Frankish institutions imposed upon Ireland by its Anglo-Norman conquerors. The Normans were not always belligerent conquerors, but they were innovators and reformers, who incorporated the sensible traditions and practices of their subjugated lands into their new government. In little over one hundred years the Normans had a transforming effect on British and Irish societies and, while different in many ways, both countries benefited from their legacy.

THE INVASION OF IRELAND THE ANGLO-NORMANS. CHAPTER I. WHO THE IRISH WERE. When the first Norman invaders looked out eagerly from their galleys at the south-eastern coast of Ireland, which they were approaching, they beheld the shores low and the country generally level. Ireland, which on her three Atlantic sides rears lofty cliffs against the fury of the ocean, and lifts between it and her great central plain a further broad barrier of mountains or hills, is tame on herLeinster coast, where the districts are with one exception flat, and the margin of the sea only a strand. Leinster appeared to the over sanguine gaze of the followers of Fitz-Stephen, to kneel to England and invite B country, viz. the Fir-Bolg, the Tuatha-Danaan, and the Milesian, the first named must have been Celts, since we have abundant proof that they continued to form the bulk of the population after the arrival of the other two races. They may have come hither from Gaul or Britain, or even Spain, in which country the Celts had early pushed the aboriginal Iberians from some of the northern provinces. From all those countries Ireland was easily accessible even in that remote age. The date of the Fir-Bolg arrival is entirely conjectural, for it is lost in the haze of antiquity; but it may have been some twelve or fourteen centuries before Christ. They were conquered by the Tuatha-Danaan, a race whose civilization excited so much wonder in the people they subdued, that the traditions speak of them as wizards. The story of their arrival, and the description of their leader, display to us at once their skill in arts unknown to a primitive state of society, and the astonishment which such created among the rude aborigines. They approached the shores in a mist raised by...

Book Synopsis Geste Des Engleis en Yrlande by : Evelyn Mullally
Download or read book Geste Des Engleis en Yrlande written by Evelyn Mullally and published by Four Courts Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The deeds of the Normans in Ireland is a primary source for the history of Ireland in the 12th century. Edited by G.H. Orpen in the 19th century, it is the only vernacular text to chronicle how Diarmait Mac Murchada brought Richard de Clare (Strongbow) to Ireland and how he was followed by Henry II of England. The text is fragmentary, but at nearly 3,500 lines it is by far the most substantial item written about Ireland in the Anglo-Norman dialect of medieval French. A few words of Irish are preserved in it, and it offers clues to pronunciation in Ireland c.1200. The text is also a valuable source for the history of Irish place names and personal names. It contains over 200 proper names, with many interesting phonetic variations. This new critical edition of the text includes a facing translation, history and description of the manuscript, study of the anonymous author, analysis of the language, textual and historical notes, maps, genealogical table, glossary and index of proper names.
