** We are taking a week off and will be back January 16th!** Happy Stephen's Day and Happy New Year! I hope everyone is having a very lovely Christmas break. This week we are joined by the incredible Dr Sparky Booker, Assistant Professor in Medieval Irish History, Trinity College Dublin. Sparky enlightens us on the legal systems in force in 14th and 15th century Ireland, how to keep your land and why Elizabeth Le Veele married King of Leinster, Art McMurrough. She also discusses how the prevalence of intermarriage in the so-called 'four obedient shires' indicates that the English and Irish interacted far more peaceably and amicably than the often belligerent attitudes displayed toward the Irish in records from the colony would indicate, and that the attempts made by the Irish parliament to distance the English of Ireland from their Irish neighbours were largely unsuccessful.Suggested reading:Sparky Booker, Cultural Exchange and Identity in late medieval Ireland: the English and Irish of the Four Obedient Shires, Studies in Medieval Life and Thought Series (Cambridge, 2018)Sparky Booker, ‘Women and legal history: the case of late medieval English Ireland and the challenges of studying ‘women'', Irish Historical Studies, 46:170 (2022), pp 224-243Sparky Booker, ‘Intermarriage in fifteenth-century Ireland: the English and Irish in the ‘four obedient shires', Proceedings of the Royal Irish Academy, 113c (2013), pp 219-250Sparky Booker, ‘Widowhood and attainder in medieval Ireland: the case of Margaret Nugent' in Deborah Youngs and Teresa Phipps (eds), Litigating women: gender and justice in Europe, c.1300-c.1800 (Abingdon, 2022), pp 81-98Ellis, Stephen G.

Send us a textThe Song of Amergin is an ancient, powerful Gaelic poem from Irish mythology. It was spoken by the bard Amergin when the Milesians (Celts) arrived in Ireland to claim the land from the Tuatha Dé Danann.  He identified himself with the land's spirit through myriad natural and elemental forms (stag, wind, wave, sunbeam, etc.) to quell a magical storm and assert divine right. It's considered perhaps the oldest poem from the all the Islands of the west coast of Europe.  It is found in ancient texts like the Book of Leinster, and is known for its enigmatic, transformative imagery, asserting control over the land's essence.Support the showIrish Mythology - Mythical Cycle - Book of Invasions
