Michelle Doran v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The completion of this work would not have been possible without the support and encouragement of many people. I wish to thank my supervisor Dr. Kevin Murray who first inspired me to pursue Early and Medieval Irish Studies many years ago. If it was his duty, then it was my pleasure to work alongside him for so many years. I am grateful to acknowledge the funding granted to me by the Higher Education Authority’s Strategic Innovation Fund. I am grateful also for the support of the organisers of the intervarsity Texts, Contexts, Cultures PhD research programme at University College Cork funded by the Irish Research Council for the Humanities and Social Sciences. I have been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to complete my research at the Department of Early and Medieval Irish at University College Cork. I wish to thank all my friends and colleagues from the Department, both past and present, for their help and companionship throughout this endeavor. To Philip Healy I extend special thanks for his many hours proof-reading, his valuable insights into my work, and extended coffee breaks. To my Father and Mother, my brother, my three beautiful sisters and, of course, the dogs, quite simply, thank you. Finally, to John Hogan, whose patience knows no bounds, I cannot begin to express my gratitude for all he has done to ensure this project came to fruition; and to him I dedicate this labour. vi INTRODUCTION Many textual scholars will be aware that the title of the present thesis has been composed in a conscious revisionary relation to Tim William Machan’s influential Textual Criticism and Middle English Texts.1 The primary subjects of Machan’s study are works written in English between the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries, the latter part of the period conventionally labelled Middle English. In contrast, the works with which I am primarily concerned are those written by scholars of Old and Middle Irish in the nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Where Machan aims to articulate the textual and cultural factors that characterise Middle English works as Middle English, the purposes of this thesis are (a) to identify the underlying ideological and epistemological perspectives which have informed much of the way in which medieval Irish documents and texts are rendered into modern editions, and (b) to begin to place the editorial theory and methodology of medieval Irish studies within the broader context of Biblical, medieval and modern textual criticism. Hence, the title is Textual Criticism and Medieval Irish Studies, rather than Textual Criticism and Medieval Irish Texts. Traditionally defined, the object of textual criticism is to establish from the divergent documentary copies a form of a text regarded as most nearly conforming to the original, the result of which is a scholarly edition complete with an introduction, an apparatus criticus, textual commentary and (in many instances) a glossary.2 Until recently, the study of the transmission of the text was viewed primarily as an aid in the recovery of the underlying original. Similarly, variant 1 Tim William Machan, Textual Criticism and Middle English Texts (Charlottesville, 1994). 2 Cf. Paul Maas, Textual Criticism, trans. Barbara Flower (Oxford, 1958), p. 1: ‘The business of textual criticism is to produce a text as close as possible to the original’. 1 Introduction readings were judged to be secondary

Advertisements The Speckled Booklet of the MacEgans Page - 5 FOREWORD One of the most outstanding medieval Irish manuscripts still extant is the Leabhar Breac—the Speckled Book of the MacEgans which was written before 1411. It is now a prized possession of the Royal Irish Academy, Dublin. It will not be considered presumptuous to call this production 'The Speckled Booklet' as it is our tribute to our forbears who left such an imprint on the history of Law and Learning in Ireland. As you will see, the articles appearing in the booklet are of particular interest to people of the names MacEgan, Egan, Eagan and Keegan. Because the MacEgans were a family interested in their family history and genealogy from the earliest times, it is not surprising that the formation of our Clan Association has evoked such interest amongst our kith and kin at home and abroad.

  • 2 Stones in the Hands of an Anointer - September 13, 2014 Ver
    2 Stones in the hands of an Anointer - September 13, 2014 ver. 1.3 Ireland is home to 2 stones of great significance. Both are connected to the bible but both stones do not share the same path. Both reside in the county of Meath (the red arrow to the right is pointing to Meath county) The first stone was born an evil stone. From under that stone the tentacles of evil have slithered and creped their evil influences worldwide. Its success of spreading over the past 2 millenniums has been to cloak itself as fun and harmless while being rotten to the core. It’s Trojan horse tactic has allowed all defenses to drop in order to slip into the minds of Christians. Evil has been declared good as it states in Is5:20. KJV Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! This stone of evil wasn't in any of the tour books that I read or any online must see spots in Ireland. It was highlighted in the local county advertisement magazine and it was only 20 minutes from where we were staying. This was the spot for us to visit and anoint in order to break the curse flowing out from that ground. The second stone was used as a kingdom stone. The stone was a standard kingdom stone for centuries until destiny, prophecy and a prophet intervened and transformed that stone about 2,500 years ago into a prophetic kingdom stone.

  • The Search for San Ffraid
    The Search for San Ffraid ‘A thesis submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in the fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts’ 2012 Jeanne Mehan 1 Abstract The Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, called in Ireland and Scotland St Brigid (also called Bride, Ffraid, Bhríde, Bridget, and Birgitta) have not previously been documented. This Irish saint is said to have traveled to Wales, but the Welsh evidence comprises a single fifteenth-century Welsh poem by Iorwerth Fynglwyd; numerous geographical dedications, including nearly two dozen churches; and references in the arts, literature, and histories. This dissertation for the first time gathers together in one place the Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, integrating the separate pieces to reveal a more focused image of a saint of obvious importance in Wales. As part of this discussion, the dissertation addresses questions about the relationship, if any, of San Ffraid, St Brigid of Kildare, and St Birgitta of Sweden; the likelihood of one San Ffraid in the south and another in the north; and the inclusion of the goddess Brigid in the portrait of San Ffraid. 2 Contents ABSTRACT ........................................................................................................................ 2 CONTENTS........................................................................................................................ 3 FIGURES ...........................................................................................................................

The blood claw ( Crobh Dearg, red claw) as the blood flow of a wound to the god/ goddess’s side after a battle, the blood flow as a claw sprawling to a holy well and a place called ‘the city’ i.e. a drystone built enclosure similar to a ringfort at Shrone on the northern side of the mountain and becoming three lesser goddesses. The goddess fallen to create the geomorphology of the landscape of South West Ireland? Her paps as two mountain peaks with a pre-historical burial cairn on each of them? Anu as the mythical mother of irish goddesses. The mother of Ériu, Banba and Fódhla? In Persian mythology is Anu a male figure and chief god and god of the sky, his children being lesser gods? Or can this god be both male and female - or male in one place while female in another? What association, if any, is there with a triad of goddesses in Persian mythology? In Irish mythology was a triad of lesser goddesses in the Sliabh Luachra district, beneath the Paps of Anu mountain-scape, to become christianised into three female saints Lasair, Latiaran, Ingen Buidhe? How might they have come to be understood in later times as the sisters of an Anglo-Saxon prince nearby named Saint Berihert? Did a triad of women bearing these names exist as nuns / holy women in the civil parishes of Cullen and Drishane in the 7th century AD? • There is a very interesting account of the folklore and history of the landscape of the Paps of Anu called The City and the Paps of Anu (Rathmore, Co.

Thank you to Jan Erik Rekdal and Karl Johansson for giving me the idea for this thesis and to my fellow students for great discussions. To all my friends and my amazing family, you know who you are, I love you more and more each day. And to the artists and musicians that make my life bearable, you do not know who you are, but without you I would truly go insane. A special thanks goes to my sister, Monica, for being my co-conspirator and for helping me bore every other member of our family with our academic discussions. May we continue to do so in the future! To Rita, whom I miss beyond words. I dedicate all my triumphs to you 4 5 Introduction The topic of the thesis is the Irish myth Cath Maige Tuired - "The Second Battle of Mag Tuired", which is the story about the battle between the Túatha Dé Danann, the gods of pagan Ireland, and their enemies the Fomoire. What I wish to focus upon in the Cath Maige Tuired is not the battle in itself, which has been compared to the war between the Aesir and the Vanir in Scandinavian mythology1, but a passage at the end of this myth, where the goddess Mórrigan (here in the form of a mortal) comes with a prediction of the end of the world.
