Combining the writing style of an award-winning novelist with expert scholarship, historian Conor Kostick has written a powerful and absorbing account of the stormy affairs of an extraordinary era.

The Norman invasion of Britain, as depicted in the Bayeux Tapestry, is well known, but the later invasion of Ireland is much less well documented. Yet much of what we see today in Irish heritage has Norman roots. Ireland and Britain have many similarities, although relations between them have too often descended into bitterness and violence. This book goes back to the starting point of this, more than eight hundred years ago. Beginning with Irish history before the Norman invasion, the book describes how Ireland was conquered and settled by the French-speaking Normans from north-west France, whose language and culture had already come to dominate most of Britain. It looks at the creation and government of a large region called the Liberty of Leinster between 1167 and 1247, a turning point in Irish history, identifying the Frankish institutions imposed upon Ireland by its Anglo-Norman conquerors. The Normans were not always belligerent conquerors, but they were innovators and reformers, who incorporated the sensible traditions and practices of their subjugated lands into their new government. In little over one hundred years the Normans had a transforming effect on British and Irish societies and, while different in many ways, both countries benefited from their legacy.

The deeds of the Normans in Ireland is a primary source for the history of Ireland in the 12th century. Edited by G.H. Orpen in the 19th century, it is the only vernacular text to chronicle how Diarmait Mac Murchada brought Richard de Clare (Strongbow) to Ireland and how he was followed by Henry II of England. The text is fragmentary, but at nearly 3,500 lines it is by far the most substantial item written about Ireland in the Anglo-Norman dialect of medieval French. A few words of Irish are preserved in it, and it offers clues to pronunciation in Ireland c.1200. The text is also a valuable source for the history of Irish place names and personal names. It contains over 200 proper names, with many interesting phonetic variations. This new critical edition of the text includes a facing translation, history and description of the manuscript, study of the anonymous author, analysis of the language, textual and historical notes, maps, genealogical table, glossary and index of proper names.

Still the classic work on the subject -- now in a new and enlarged edition -- with "all the evidence of hard work, happily allied to a sense of style.

This is a fascinating and heavily illustrated account of the most far-reaching event that occurred in Ireland since the introduction of Christianity.

The Deeds of the Normans in Ireland (La Geste des Engleis en Yrlande) is a primary source for the history of Ireland in the twelfth century. Formerly edited as The Song of Dermot and the Earl, it is the only vernacular text to chronicle how Diarmait Mac Murchada brought Richard de Clare (Strongbow) to Ireland from Wales and how Henry II of England followed and established his régime. The text is incomplete, but at nearly 3,500 lines, it is by far the most substantial item written in French in Ireland in the Middle Ages and it is a significant example of the Anglo-Norman dialect of medieval French. A few words of Irish are preserved in it and it offers clues to the pronunciation of Irish at the end of the twelfth century. The text is also a valuable source for the history of Irish place names and personal names and includes many interesting phonetic variations. This is a new critical edition of the text. It includes a facing translation, a history and description of the manuscript, a study of the anonymous author, an analysis of the language, textual and historical notes, maps, a chronology, a genealogical table, a select glossary and an index of proper names.

A revised and expanded second edition of a classic work on the history of early medieval Ireland c.800 to the coming of the Normans, first published in 1972. It deals with the geography of power, kingship and society, the church and its structures, the Viking wars, the twelfth-century reform and the wars of the Irish dynasties, 950-1169. With a new bibliography and up-to-date references and notes.The book presents an original assessment of the changing structure of Irish society in the period of the Viking wars and beyond -- a period of violent change in some aspects but one of extraordinary continuity in others. The most interesting developments -- the simplication of Irish class structure, the emergence of a new monarchy based on farflung dynasties, and the reform of the Irish church and the growth of institutions -- are treated in detail.
