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.

One of the Commissioners for the Publication of the Ancient Laws of Ireland Late Principal of the Government Training College, Marlbcrough Street, Dublin Late President of the Royal Society of Antiquaries, Ireland THE LIFE OF A PEOPLE IS PICTURED IN THEIR SPEECH. LONDON : LONGMANS, GREEN, & CO. DUBLIN: M. H. GILL & SON, LTD. i\ 1910 . b PEEFACE. THIS book deals with the Dialect of the English Language that is spoken in Ireland. As the Life of a people according to our motto is pictured in their speech, our picture ought to be a good one, for two languages were concerned in it Irish and English. The part played by each will be found specially set forth in and VII and in farther detail Chapters IV ; throughout the whole book. The articles and pamphlets that have already appeared on this interesting subject which are described below are all short. Some are full of keen observation but are lists ; very many mere of dialectical words with their meanings. Here for the first time in this little volume of mine our Anglo-Irish Dialect is subjected to detailed analysis and systematic classification. I have been collecting materials for this book for more than not indeed twenty years ; by way of constant work, but off and on as detailed below. The sources from which these materials were directly derived are mainly the following. First. My own memory is a storehouse both of idiom and for the reason vocabulary ; good that from childhood to early manhood I spoke like those among whom I lived the rich dialect VI PREFACE.

Hudson From Senchus to histore: Traditions of King Duncan I The kings of Scotland prior to the reign of Malcolm III, popularly known as Malcolm Carunore (Malcolm "Bighead") have rarely been con sidered in connection with Scottish historical literature. Macbeth, largely due to Shakespeare's drama, has been the exception. For the medieval period alone, Nora Chadwick's examination of the Macbeth legend showed that a number of literary traditions, both native and foreign, can be detected in later medieval literature. 1 Macbeth was not alone in hav ing a variety of legends cluster about his memory; his historical and liter ary contemporary Duncan earned his share of legends too. This can be seen in a comparison of the accounts about Duncan preserved in historical literature, such as the Chroniea Gentis Seotorum of John of Fordun and the Original Chronicle of Scotland by Andrew of Wyntoun.2 Such a com- INora Chadwick, "The Story of Macbeth," Scottish Gaelic Studies (1949), 187-221; 7 (1951), 1-25.

Annals, Histories, Genealogies & Tales P. W. Joyce
Annals, Histories, Genealogies & Tales P. W. Joyce 1903 SECTION I. How the Annals were compiled. AMONG the various classes of persons who devoted themselves to Literature in ancient Ireland, there were special Annalists, who made it their business to record, with the utmost accuracy, all remarkable events simply and briefly, without any ornament of language, without exaggeration, and without fictitious embellishment. The extreme care they took that their statements should be truthful is shown by the manner in which they compiled their books. As a general rule they admitted nothing into their records except either what occurred during their lifetime, and which may be said to have come under their own personal knowledge, or what they found recorded in the compilations of previous annalists, who had themselves followed the same plan. These men took nothing on hearsay : and in this manner successive Annalists carried on a continued chronicle from age to age, thus giving the whole series the force of contemporary testimony [1] We have still preserved to us many books of native Annals, the most important of which will be briefly described in this chapter. Most of the ancient manuscripts whose entries are copied into the books of Annals we now possess have been lost ; but that the entries were so copied is rendered quite certain by various expressions found in the present existing Annals, as well as by the known history of several of the compilations. The compiler of the Annals of Ulster, for instance, Cathal Maguire, an eminent divine, philosopher, and historian, who died of smallpox, A.D.

Irish Chronicles As Sources for the History of Northern Britain, AD
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Aberdeen University Research Archive INR 69[1] EVANS: Page 1 of 57 Nicholas Evans Irish chronicles as sources for the history of northern Britain, A.D. 660– 8001 The Irish chronicles, along with sources from England, especially the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle and Bede’s ‘Ecclesiastical History of the English People’, provide the chronological framework that underpins the narrative history of northern Britain in the seventh and eighth centuries.2 Other texts help to illuminate various aspects of the period’s societies, but their limitations in chronological and geographical coverage, and subject-matter, as well as difficulties in determining their early contents, mean that historical texts with chronologies form the basis for reconstructing the narrative skeleton of this period. An understanding of these chronological texts as sources is therefore crucial not only for their own interpretation but also for the study of many other witnesses. 1 I would like to thank Dauvit Broun, who supervised the postgraduate work from which this has evolved, the many people who have read and commented on drafts of this article or conference and seminar papers on this subject, and in particular David Dumville, Paul Russell, and the anonymous referee, for their contributions to improving drafts of this text. 2 The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle.

Beougher Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2007 The thesis of David B. Beougher was reviewed and approved* by the following: Benjamin T. Hudson Professor of History and Medieval Studies Thesis Adviser Chair of Committee Carol A. Reardon Professor of Military History Janina Safran Associate Professor of History Baruch Halpern Professor of Ancient History, Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies Sally McMurry Head and Professor Department of History *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii ABSTRACT This dissertation studies the career of Brian ”Bórumha” mac Cennétig from its beginning with his election to the kingship of his ancestral kingdom of Dál Cais in 976 until his death as the high-king of Ireland at the Battle of Clontarf in 1014. He was arguably the most successful Irish king of the Middle Ages, and his sobriquet “bórumha” (“cattle tribute”), usually Anglicized as “Boru,” refers to his right to the reign over the island. Special emphasis is placed on the development of his military strategy as he progressed from regional prince to lordship over the entire island. Brian’s career has not received the scholarly attention given to his contemporaries elsewhere. His reign is either dealt with superficially in brief essays or treated more fully by writers interested in sensationalism. A careful study of Brian’s strategy and operational method reveals that they continuously evolved during the course of his reign.

It is argued that the workshop that created it and related material was located at Clonmacnoise and that abbot Tigernach Ua Bráein (d.1088) may have been its commissioner. While there is no basis to the story that it was found, along with another crosier, in Temple Ciarán its iconography nevertheless suggests a link with that building and more generally with Clonmacnoise.
