Russian Medieval Fortresses in the Light of New Discoveries Medieval Russia could boast more than a thousand fortresses and numerous fortified lines stretching up to r,ooo km in length. This paper examines three debatable aspects of Russian fortification history that have recently been dramatically revised. Yuri Yurievich Morgunov's revolutionary conception has destroyed a long-lived view of earthen ramparts with wooden intra-rampart structures as the basis of the medieval Russian fortification. The ramparts turned out to be ruins of wooden log walls filled with earth. New interpretation of the terms byk and roskat is offered. Each of them had three meanings: byk meant buttresses or strengthening lean-to, earth-wooden defences brought out to face the enemy and stout tower-like wooden structures, whrle roskat served to describe a lean-to, a tower-like building and an earthen bastion. A strong Italian influence on Russian fortresses dating from the late r5t1' to the rTth century has been established. Die russischen mittelalterlichen Festungen im Lichte neuer Entdeckungen Das mittelalterliche Russland konnte sich nihmen, mehr als eintausend Festungen und zahlreiche befestigte Linien mit einer Ldnge von bis zu r.ooo km zu besitzen. Der Beitrag untersucht drei strittige Aspekte der Geschichte der russischen Festungsanlagen, die in jirngster Zeit in radikaler Weise neubewertet wurden. Die revolutiondre Herangehensweise Yuri Yurievich Morgunovs hat die lange vertretene Auffassung widerlegt, Erdwerke mit Holzaufbau zwischen den Bollwerken seien die Basis der russischen Festungsanlagen des Mittelalters gewesen. Es hat sich herausgestellt, dass die Bollwerke die Uberreste von holzernen, mit Erde aufgefullten Mauern waren. Eine neue Interpretation der Begriffe byk und roskat wird vorgestellt. Sie hatten jeweils drei Bedeutungen: byk waren Stiitzpfeiler oder stiitzende Anbauten, Wehre aus Holz und Erde, die nach aulJen wiesen, um dem Feind zu begegnen, sowie massive turmdhnliche Bauten aus Holz, wihrend roskat verwendet wurde, um einen Anbau, ein turmdhnliches Geblude oder eine Bastion aus Erdwerk zu bezeichnen.

  • Upper Shannon Route Planner
    Upper Shannon Route Planner Our Carrick-on-Shannon marina station bustles with cruisers and cosmopolitan crews busily preparing to cast off for their waterway adventures. The small pretty town is Ireland’s cruising centre, offering a rich choice of provisions as well as a wide selection of pubs and restaurants. From here, a northerly heading takes you along the narrow, tree-lined Boyle River which then leads into Lough Key. This is a magical place with stunning scenery and nestled on its banks is the Forest Park. It's worth spending some time here, following the splendid nature trails and claiming a secluded picnic site. Heading north, you can also access Lough Allen, or head towards the Shannon/Erne waterway, leading to Lough Erne. On a southerly heading, the Shannon slowly widens, flowing gently by a cluster of small towns and villages and all well worth a visit. As you slowly cruise downstream, the river leads through a ribbon of Loughs that stretch for miles until you reach Lough Ree, a vast, inland sea that boasts inspiring scenery and diverse wildlife. If you fancy some fish for supper, cast your line over the side - the fishing on Lough Ree will rarely disappoint. Hodson Bay is an excellent stop-off point on the southern shore or make your way along to Athlone, a town with a long history and a choice of extremely good golf courses. Leitrim This little village is the gateway to the Shannon. The village pulled itself from near ruin in the 1600's when Donal O' Sullivan ended his long march from Kerry at Leitrim Castle, the ruins of which you can still see close to the marina.

  • What Kind of Irish Was Spoken in Westmeath?
    What kind of Irish was spoken in Westmeath? AENGUS FINNEGAN By the time of the Gaelic Revival at the end of the 19th century, the Irish language as a vernacular had largely disappeared across Leinster. The small extent of the language which remained was probably confined to the most remote and out-of-the-way townlands, and scattered among a generation who had been largely forgotten by the outside world – with the possible exception of a small part of Co. Louth. It is no wonder, then, that it is primarily to the north, west and southwest areas of Ireland that scholars of the language in all its varying forms have since directed their attention. It is in these regions that the language continued to be spoKen into the 20th century, and indeed continues to be spoKen, though much less extensively than heretofore. This focus, however understandable, has left a large gap in our understanding of the historical distribution of the dialects of Irish across the eastern half of the country. The only means of filling this gap is to carry out a detailed study of the scant remains of the language, as found in word lists, folKlore collections, the later manuscript tradition (if available), everyday speech, and, last but by no means least, in placenames, including both townland and minor names. The great advantage of evidence from placenames to the historial dialectologist is the universal distribution of the placenames themselves. This means that aspects of the language which come to light in the placenames of one area can safely and easily be compared with developments in another.
