The History and Antiquities of Dublin The History and Antiquities of Dublin Collected from Authentic Records and the Manuscript Collections of Sir James Ware, Knt, by Robert Ware, son of that learned Antiquary 1678. 1 The Preface My designe in writing this historicall treatise in not to unfould the complicated affaires of State intricacies, for policy was never my profession nor studie, nor doe I intend, nor indeed can I hope to deduce a clear and uninterrupted series of action from the cloudy originall of this nation, or from the first inhabitation of this famous Cittiei of Dublin1; soe ancient that its founders are not certainly known, though in the life of Griffith ap Cinanii, wee read that Harald of Norway when he had subdued the greatest part of Ireland, built Divelin. My scope is only to comply with those inducements which have been often vehemently urged unto mee, for the publishing, in the best method I can such observations of my deceased father Sir James Ware, Knight,, and other particulars of moment relating to the Cittie of Dublin, since the conquest of Ireland, as I find in the several volumes of those manuscripts, which he was pleased to bequeath unto mee, as a legacy of great price, & for the regulation and conduct of myself in this undertaking. I shall look up to no other pole, nor have any other scope then the impartiall representation of truth out of authentick memorials compiled with the secure warranty of faithful dealing. 1 King Edgar in a certain chart of his calls it the famous Citty of Dublin 2 The History of Dublin The Citty of Dublin, though anciently it was not to be compared for number of inhabitants, magnificence of building or extent of place with the Citties of Armagh, Derrycolmeekill, Drumcleoth, Kenlish in Meath, and Fatymoreiii, they having been townes of the greatest estimation in Ireland; yet ever since Ireland was brought under the government of the Crown of England, hath been the Chief Seat of the state, and therefore accompted the Metropolis of the Kingdome, and tearmed the beauty and eye of Ireland. [2] It hath also been an Archepiscopal See, ever since the thirty first year of Gregory bishop of Dubliniv which fell in the year of our Lord one thousand one hundred fifty two when John Paparo Cardinallv and Christian O’Conarchy Bishop of Lismorevi being then the Pope’s Legate conferred on him the Pall, and therewith the Archiepiscopall dignity, as some sayvii in a synod elsewhere1, others in the Church of the Holy Trinity in Dublin, on that Lord’s day wherein according to the then rituall was sung Laetare Hierusalem2. What was the name of this Citty from its first foundation, or why is it called Dublin, are questions which though learned and ingenious criticisme hath acutely disputed, I am unable absolutely to determine. Ptolomie calls it by the name of Eblana, which Hollinshed saith is a corrupted denomination of Avelana, from Avelanus. But I must dissent from that opinion by reason it was called Eblana by Ptolomy, before Avelanus or his brothers Sytaracus or Iporus came into Ireland, though I will not deny but that Avelanus was an inlarger of this Cittie in the second century computed from the birth of our Saviourviii. It hath anciently bene called Dublina, Dubliena and Dublinum and sometimes Duvelinum, wherewith the name Divelin, now used by the neighbouring Fingallians, and the word Duvelinium recited in the following Charter of Henry the Second doe well agree. And it is derived with most probability from two Irish words Dough and Ling, which signify a black lake or puddle, for in such a place was the Cittie [3] first built, and by reason thereof called by some Ballycleagh or the town built upon hurdles. Here it may be observed that the West of Ireland is called Acley Narry and the east thereof Acley Dulene, and that the breath of Ireland hath been measured from Acley Narry to Acley Duleneix, as the length thereof hath been anciently admeasured from Clockstallam in the North to Carneballen 1 This synod was held as some say att Kells others at Mellifont 2 [O be joyful, Jerusalem, from Isaiah 66:10.] 3 in the Southx. Upon this and to have accompt Acley Dulene may seem to signify Dubline, and to have reference in point of opposition or analogie to Acley Narry, but this I leave to the inquisition of better criticks in the Irish tongue. I shall not further trouble the reader with the nomenclature thereof, yet, before I come to the rise of its government under the policie and authority of England, and for the better knowledge and disposition of things to follow in the course of my proceeding in the history thereof. It will not (I hope) be thought impertinent to look a little back into the manner – how it was taken, lost and regained in short vicissitudes of fortune, and what was the condition thereof when first taken and afterwards brought under dominion of England. When the time drew near for the accomplishment of what was foretold anciently by the four great Saintes of Ireland, Saint Patrick, Saint Columb, Saint Braganxi and Saint Molingexii, and afterwards by the Bishop of Ardbrackanxiii. [4] concerning the coming of the English into Ireland and the reduction thereof under the dominion of England. Robert Fitz Stephens having cheif command in the first expidition and conduct of English forces into Ireland and being a person of suitable magnanimitie [The following in Harris’s hand is inserted on a slip, replacing the erased introduction.] the reduction thereof to the Crowne of England, there wanted not secondary means for the effecting thereof, for Ireland being then governed by divers petty Kings, it so happened that Dermot (comonly called Dermot Mac Morroug) who reigned over the east part of Ireland thereof called Leinster, being for his tyranny and lustfulness thrust out of his kingdome, by reason he had ravished the wife of O’Rorke king of Meath3, obtained of Henry the 2nd then King of England great ayde and forces for the recovery of his dominion, covenanting also with Richard Strongbow Earle of Pembroke that for his assistance likewise therein, he would give him his daughter Eve in marriage and assure unto him the said Kingdom of Leinster, in reversion after him. Whereupon that Earle with a brave army of Welsh and English, hasted into Ireland; Robert fitz Stephen having a chief command in that first expedition, who, being a person of suitable magnaminitie .. ..to so great an undertaking as was the Conquest of Ireland, resolved from his first landing at the Bann in the County of Wexford, to proceed with circumspection, and an active and unwearied diligence, as finding himself entered into a theatre of action, large enough to display his great abilities, and to exercise the valour of his consorts and followers, never neglected occasions nor lost 3 [recte Bréifne. Leitrim, Cavan & parts of Sligo] 4 advantages, and therefore being unwilling to lett time runne on too farre to his prejudice, or to the advantage of his enemy, espetialy when fortune and opportunity suggested unto him a fitt and hopefull season to pursue so generous a designe, while the Irish and other inhabitants of Ireland were cast into the confusion of counseles by so sudden a surprise, and soe that his forces were augmented the very next day after his landing by the accession of Maurice Prendergast accompanied with tenn knights and sixty archers, hee wrote a letter subscribed by himself and the said Maurice unto Dermot McMorough King of Leinster, who according to an agreement made between him and his English confederates, absconded himself in the monastery of Fernes (founded by himself, and dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary4), not far from the place of their landing, in expectation of their arrival, and to be in the greatest readiness to give furtherance and assistance to them at their first [5] landing; the tenor of which letter you have in these words following: “Wee according to the commission of our Royall Sovereigne Henry King of England and our contract made with your Grace, have brought what assistance we were able, still expecting more for your assistance as wee shall proceed: wee therefore desire to know your princely intentions and that speedily. From Bann5 May eleventh 1169 Signed Maurice Prendergast Robt Fitz Stephens” Upon this intimation given unto Dermott McMorough, hee conceiving no other answers of greater importance to his confederates, then his personall presence; nor greater assurance to them of his upright intentions, then his immediate repair unto them. Without delay he came to their camp at the Bann, where after mutual congratulations, they proceeded to continue the orderly disposition of means for the prosecuting of the warre. And in the first place immediately established among themselves a resolution to attaque the town of Wexford, being the most distressed with fear of all other places, by reason there was no town so near that powerfull army that could so plentifully reward their first attempt with publique and private advantage. The next day after Dermott Mc Morough drawes them out against the town, the inhabitants loosing their courage upon so potent an attaque as was then made; and after a very weak and feeble resistance there being but twenty one men slain on both sides, surrendered [6] themselves to the exceeding glory of England’s armes, and as much consternation to the contrey thereaboutes. The surrender of this town was accelerated by the persuasion of two or three prelates, who upon the second assault observing with how wonderful effects the engines of warre threatened the besieged, 4 [A house of Augustinian canons c.

  • The Survival of the Confraternities in Post-Reformation Dublin
    The Survival of the Confraternities in Post-Reformation Dublin COLM LENNON St. Patrick 's College, Maynooth When the Reformation came to Dublin in the 1530s it might have seemed as if the age of the confraternities or religious guilds of the city was over. As elsewhere in Europe, these institutions provided conduits for obituar- ial prayer for members and their families, welfare for the deprived, education for the young, and pomp and pageantry for citizens during the civic year. Handsomely endowed with gifts of money, lands and houses, the guilds gave employment to an increasing number of lay-ap- pointed chaplains who celebrated mass at the confraternal altars in the parish churches of Dublin. By the early sixteenth century the guilds had acquired the titles to properties yielding hundreds of pounds per annum in rents from estates in the city, suburbs and vicinity. Membership incorporated men and women from all social orders within the munici- pality, although the preponderance of patrician brothers and sisters in certain key guilds such as those of St. Sythe's in St. Michan's, St. Anne's in St. Audoen's and Corpus Christi in St. Michael's parish was to be a significant feature of their later survival into the seventeenth century. Con- tinuity with medieval devotions was enshrined in the practices and pieties of the guilds, those of St. George and St. Mary's, Mulhuddard, providing an awning for holy wells to the east and west of the city, for example, and the fresco behind the altar of St. Anne's denoting veneration of the holy family.

  • John Thomas Mullock: What His Books Reveal
    John Thomas Mullock: What His Books Reveal Ágnes Juhász-Ormsby The Episcopal Library of St. John’s is among the few nineteenth- century libraries that survive in their original setting in the Atlantic provinces, and the only one in Newfoundland and Labrador.1 It was established by John Thomas Mullock (1807–69), Roman Catholic bishop of Newfoundland and later of St. John’s, who in 1859 offered his own personal collection of “over 2500 volumes as the nucleus of a Public Library.” The Episcopal Library in many ways differs from the theological libraries assembled by Mullock’s contemporaries.2 When compared, for example, to the extant collection of the Catholic bishop of Victoria, Charles John Seghers (1839–86), whose life followed a similar pattern to Mullock’s, the division in the founding collection of the Episcopal Library between the books used for “private” as opposed to “public” theological study becomes even starker. Seghers’s books showcase the customary stock of a theological library with its bulky series of manuals of canon law, collections of conciliar and papal acts and bullae, and practical, dogmatic, moral theological, and exegetical works by all the major authors of the Catholic tradition.3 In contrast to Seghers, Mullock’s library, although containing the constitutive elements of a seminary library, is a testimony to its found- er’s much broader collecting habits. Mullock’s books are not restricted to his philosophical and theological studies or to his interest in univer- sal church history. They include literary and secular historical works, biographies, travel books, and a broad range of journals in different languages that he obtained, along with other necessary professional 494 newfoundland and labrador studies, 32, 2 (2017) 1719-1726 John Thomas Mullock: What His Books Reveal tools, throughout his career.

  • George Abbot 1562-1633 Archbishop of Canterbury
    English Book Owners in the Seventeenth Century: A Work in Progress Listing How much do we really know about patterns and impacts of book ownership in Britain in the seventeenth century? How well equipped are we to answer questions such as the following?: What was a typical private library, in terms of size and content, in the seventeenth century? How does the answer to that question vary according to occupation, social status, etc? How does the answer vary over time? – how different are ownership patterns in the middle of the century from those of the beginning, and how different are they again at the end? Having sound answers to these questions will contribute significantly to our understanding of print culture and the history of the book more widely during this period. Our current state of knowledge is both imperfect, and fragmented. There is no directory or comprehensive reference source on seventeenth-century British book owners, although there are numerous studies of individual collectors. There are well-known names who are regularly cited in this context – Cotton, Dering, Pepys – and accepted wisdom as to collections which were particularly interesting or outstanding, but there is much in this area that deserves to be challenged. Private Libraries in Renaissance England and Books in Cambridge Inventories have developed a more comprehensive approach to a particular (academic) kind of owner, but they are largely focused on the sixteenth century. Sears Jayne, Library Catalogues of the English Renaissance, extends coverage to 1640, based on book lists found in a variety of manuscript sources. The Cambridge History of Libraries in Britain and Ireland (2006) contains much relevant information in this field, summarising existing scholarship, and references to this have been included in individual entries below where appropriate.

    To Plant and Improve: Justifying the Consolidation of Tudor and Stuart Rule in Ireland, 1509 to 1625 Samantha Watson A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Humanities and Languages Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences September 2014 THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Watson First name: Samantha Other name/s: Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School: School of Humanities and Languages Faculty: Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Title: To plant and improve: justifying the consolidation of Tudor and Stuart rule in Ireland, 1509 to 1625. Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) This thesis aims to examine the ideologies employed in justifying English conquest and plantation of Ireland between 1509 and 1625. It adopts the methodology of a contextualist intellectual history, which situates the sources within the intellectual and material world, and in relation to the publically approved paradigms, available to the authors. The thesis encompasses a range of source material - correspondence, policy papers and published tracts - from major and minor figures in government and undertakers of colonisation schemes. The source material will be examined with respect to the major upheavals in intellectual culture in late medieval and early modern England and, in particular, the impact of major pan- European movements, the Protestant Reformation and the Renaissance. Focussing on the ethics associated with the spread of Renaissance humanism and Calvinist Protestantism, it explores socio-political ideas in England and examines the ways that these ideas were expressed in relation to Ireland.

RESEARCHING HUGUENOT SETTLERS IN IRELAND1 VIVIEN COSTELLO PREAMBLE This study is a genealogical research guide to French Protestant refugee settlers in Ireland, c. 1660–1760. It reassesses Irish Huguenot settlements in the light of new findings and provides a background historical framework. A comprehensive select bibliography is included. While there is no formal listing of manuscript sources, many key documents are cited in the footnotes. This work covers only French Huguenots; other Protestant Stranger immigrant groups, such as German Palatines and the Swiss watchmakers of New Geneva, are not featured. INTRODUCTION Protestantism in France2 In mainland Europe during the early sixteenth century, theologians such as Martin Luther and John Calvin called for an end to the many forms of corruption that had developed within the Roman Catholic Church. When their demands were ignored, they and their followers ceased to accept the authority of the Pope and set up independent Protestant churches instead. Bitter religious strife throughout much of Europe ensued. In France, a Catholic-versus-Protestant civil war was waged intermittently throughout the second half of the sixteenth century, followed by ever-increasing curbs on Protestant civil and religious liberties.3 The majority of French Protestants, nicknamed Huguenots,4 were followers of Calvin.
