  • THE WOOING of CHOICE: Prosimetric Reconstruction of the Female Journey in Irish Mythology
    THE WOOING OF CHOICE: Prosimetric Reconstruction of the Female Journey in Irish mythology by Roxanne Bodsworth 2020 This thesis is submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Institute of Sustainable Industries and Liveable Cities, Victoria University. i Abstract: In “The Wooing of Choice: prosimetric reconstruction of the female journey in Irish mythology”, I examine the representation of female characters in Irish mythological tales where the woman chooses her lover in contravention of social expectations. In the traditional versions, the woman recedes into the background as the narrative develops around the male hero. I ask what happens to the discourse of the narrative when it is subverted so that the focus is placed upon the female experience. This is explored through a creative component, called ‘Meet Me in My World’, a prosimetric reconstruction of three Irish tales in which the woman chooses her lover and compels him to follow her. The three tales are: Aislinge Óengusso (The Dream of Óengus); Tóruigheacht Dhiarmada agus Ghráinne (The Pursuit of Diarmaid and Gráinne); and Longes mac nUislenn (The Exile of the Sons of Uisliu). The exegetical component, comprising 50% of the thesis, is composed of two sections. In the first, I examine theories of feminist writing and remythologizing, and develop a new model for feminist reconstruction, which I apply to the creative product. In the second section, I explore the relationship between narrative and poetry, from medieval prosimetric translations to contemporary hybrid texts, and consider which form provides the best framework for my female-centred narrative and the verse.

  • The Art of Preserving the Dindshenchas
    The Art of Preserving the Dindshenchas Investigating Scribal Alterations in ‘Loch Garman,’ ‘Lia Nothain,’ and ‘Berba’ Ellen-Marie Sørhus Pedersen 603170 Master’s Thesis in Viking and Medieval Studies: VMS 4190 60 credits University of Oslo Department of LinguistiCs and SCandinavian Studies (ILN) Spring 2021 6 Summary While the Dindshenchas has appeared sporadically within academia, it was not until the turn of this century that the corpus started to earn consistent interest. However, due to its size and continued presence in manuscripts, ranging from the Book of Leinster and Book of Ballymote to newer manuscripts, there are a large number of aspects in need of further investigation. This thesis will address the scribal alterations in Dindshenchas entries across multiple manuscripts, as well as to what extent this has affected the placelore material. Even though it would have been beneficial to analyse a significant amount of the Dindshenchas corpus, this project focuses on three specific Dindshenchas entries in the hopes of developing arguments and conclusions that can connect to the entire corpus. Furthermore, this thesis attempts to advocate for a closer look on the scribal alterations to the Dindshenchas, and questions why such alterations were committed in the first place. Through this analysis, it is evident that accessing the original placelore is impossible due to these alterations being introduced gradually over time. However, it is important keep in mind that the main purpose of the Dindshenchas might not have been to provide plausible and accurate entries of Irish placelore. Instead, it could have been an attempt to provide a collection of the Irish placelore, without paying attention to truthfulness, believability, or accurateness.

General Conclusion 250 Bibliography 253 2 When critics formerly considered satire in early Irish literature their main focus was áer. Satire in the more modern sense has received comparatively little attention. This thesis attempts to redress that balance by analysing a number of specific texts for satirical content as it is conventionally understood. By way of introduction áer itself will be examined with a view to ascertaining the origins of satire and how it developed as a literary art from magical curse to its more sophisticated form. The relevance of possible external influences will also be considered. Initially the Mellgleó n-Iliach episode from TBC I will be discussed in the light of alterations made to it by the author of Recension II and the way in which these underline its original satirical slant. Attention will then focus on three whole texts, namely Scéla Muicce Meic Da Thó, Serglige Con Culainn and the H Version of Aislinge Meic Con Glinne.

  • History and Salvation in Medieval Ireland
    History and Salvation in Medieval Ireland History and Salvation in Medieval Ireland explores medieval Irish conceptions of salvation history, using Latin and vernacular sources from c. 700 to c. 1200 CE that adapt biblical history for audiences both secular and ecclesiastical. This book examines medieval Irish sources on the cities of Jerusalem and Babylon; reworkings of narratives from the Hebrew Scriptures; literature influ- enced by the psalms; and texts indebted to Late Antique historiography. It argues that the conceptual framework of salvation history, and the related theory of the divinely ordained movement of political power through history, had a formative influence on early Irish culture, society and identity. Primarily through analysis of previously untranslated sources, this study teases out some of the intricate connections between the local and the universal in order to situate medieval Irish historiography within the context of that of the wider world. Using an overar- ching biblical chronology, beginning with the lives of the Jewish Patriarchs and ending with the Christian apostolic missions, this study shows how one culture understood the histories of others and has important implications for issues such as kingship, religion and literary production in medieval Ireland. This book will appeal to scholars and students of medieval Ireland, as well as those interested in religious and cultural history. Elizabeth Boyle is a LecturerPROOF in Early Irish at Maynooth University. Her research focuses on the intellectual, cultural and religious history of Ireland. Studies in Early Medieval Britain and Ireland Series editors: Joanna E. Story, University of Leicester, UK Roy Flechner, University College Dublin, Ireland Studies in Early Medieval Britain and Ireland illuminates the history of Britain and Ireland from the start of the fifth century to the establishment of French- speaking aristocracies in the eleventh and twelfth centuries, for historians, archaeologists, philologists and literary and cultural scholars.

It is a story within a story, and is interesting for its curious folk- lore, its vocabulary, and its place-names. It relates how the nobles of Ireland in the reign of Diarmait son of Cerball (545 to 565), murmured at the extent of the royal domain of Tara, and refused to attend the feast of Tara until some arrangement defining its limitations should be made.

Just like one event can have many versions, the poet with one body can wear many masks that can be conflicting and contradictory. This could be the reason why Brendan Kennelly worked on creating a multifaceted version of Cromwell in his long poem and, to an even greater extent, of Judas in The Book of Judas. If it is not clear how Cromwell could be both a savage murderer and a loving father, it is not clear either how Kennelly, the performing poet and Kennelly the writing poet can be reconciled in his work.

    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS UPSALIENSIS Studia Celtica Upsaliensia Proceedings of the Seventh Symposium of Societas Celtologica Nordica Edited by Mícheál Ó Flaithearta ABSTRACT Ó Flaithearta, M., ed., 2007. Proceedings of the Seventh Symposium of Societas Celtologica Nordica. Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. Studia Celtica Upsaliensia 6. This volume contains some of the papers read at the seventh symposium of Societas Celtologica Nordica which was held at Uppsala on 21–22 May 2004. The twelve papers published here not only reflect the breadth of Celtic Studies but also the con- nections between the Celtic and Scandinavian traditions in general. One paper dis- cusses the location of historical Lochlainn: was it Scotland or Scandinavia? The papers on language address topics in the areas of etymology and verbal morphology, topographical lexicon and onomastic formula, periphrastic verbal construction as well as a comparative corpus study of the use of the autonomous and passive pro- gressive in Modern Irish. Literary articles deal with such topics as the shifting faces of the supernatural in Irish tradition, tripartitie structure in medieval Welsh narrative, aspects of the poet’s role in sixteenth-century Ireland as well as an article on an example of a dream-vision (aisling) parody from eighteenth-century Ireland. A final article discusses some documents of Irish interest from the Carl Wilhelm Von Sy- dow archive in Lund University.
