This book explores the towers’ qualities as works of architecture as well as examining their relationships with other buildings at the sites on which they stand. The author suggests how the towers were employed in ceremonies and other ritualised activities of the Viking Age church in Ireland. They prove to be crucial evidence in a new history of Irish Christianity between the Viking raids and the late 12th-century invasion.

Book Synopsis Pilgrimage in Ireland by : Peter Harbison
Download or read book Pilgrimage in Ireland written by Peter Harbison and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 1995-06-01 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The landscape of Ireland is rich with ancient carved stone crosses, tomb-shrines, Romanesque churches, round towers, sundials, beehive huts, Ogham stones and other monuments, many of them dating from before the 12th century. The purpose and function of these artifacts have often been the subject of much debate. Peter Harbison proposes in this book a radical hypothesis: that a great many of these relics can be explained in terms of ecclesiastical pilgrimage. He has constructed a fascination theory about the palace of pilgrimage in the early Christian period, placing it right at the center of communal life. The monuments themselves make much better sense if it looked at in this light—as having come into existence not through the practices of ascetic monks but because of the activities of pilgrims. He begins by searching the historical sources in detail for evidence of early pilgrimage sites. By examining their monuments he projects the findings to other locations where pilgrimage has not been documented. He goes on to describe monument-types of every kind and to identify pilgrims in sculpture surviving from before AD 1200. The Dingle Peninsula in Kerry proves to be a microcosm of pilgrimage monuments, enabling the author to reconstruct a tradition of maritime pilgrimage activity up and down the west coast of Ireland. Indeed, the famous medieval traveler's tale of the fabulous voyage of the St Brendan the Navigator can now be seen as the literary expression of a longstanding maritime pilgrimage along the Atlantic seaways of Ireland and Scotland, reaching Iceland, Greenland, and even North America.
Book Synopsis The Mysterious Round Towers of Ireland by : Thomas Sheridan
Download or read book The Mysterious Round Towers of Ireland written by Thomas Sheridan and published by . This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will attempt to demonstrate-regardless of various scientific and other methods claiming to confirm the Christian origin of the Round Towers of Ireland-that the debate surrounding their actual history and function is still far from conclusively proven. There exists enough shadow and vagueness within the topic to suggest a far more profound and ancient mystery-when we incorporate a polymath-style approach-by examining the history of the Round Towers without ecclesiastical eyes. Peeling back the layers of accepted narratives surrounding the towers reveals a very different story below the numerous facades and fables which have been placed upon the Round Tower story. Facades and fables designed to hide their true origins.
