‎Summary The notion that, upon the advent of the English in 1167, all Gaelic peoples in Ireland were immediately and ipso facto denied access to the English royal courts has become so widely accepted in popular culture that it is often treated as fact. In this ground-breaking monograph, however, the narrative of absolute ethnic discrimination in thirteenth- and early fourteenth-century English Ireland is for the first time tackled head-on through a thorough re-examination of the Irish plea rolls. Through a forensic study of these records, the author demonstrates not only that there was a great deal of variation in how members of various ethnic groups and women who came before the English royal courts in Ireland were treated, but also that there was a large ? and hitherto scarcely noticed ? population of Gaels with regular and unimpeded access to English law, and that the intersections between gender/sex and ethnicity have too often been deeply misunderstood or disregarded. A close comparison between the treatment of Gaelic women and men and that of the English of Ireland, together with an in-depth examination of other ethnicities from around the Irish Sea, provide a new understanding of English Ireland in which it is clear that there was not a simple dichotomy between the English and the unfree, but rather that people lived an altogether more complex and nuanced existence.

‎This book explores the broad scope of political, economic, and social aspects of relations between Central Europe (focused on Poland and the lands of the Czechs) and Ireland. Taking a longitudinal approach, this study charts the interaction between the western and the central-eastern peripheries of Europe from the Middle Ages to the period after the Third Partition of Poland-Lithuania in 1795. The authors examine how the relationship between the geographically opposite ends of Europe evolved. Shaped by the shifts of political tectonic plates they argue that the evolution can be described in general terms: from a largely unidirectional to an interconnected chain of events. This book demonstrates similarities and analyses differences in a complex, yet unexplored, past of the three emergent nations; nations which in the public perception were overshadowed by their mighty neighbours for far too long.- Chapter 1.

‎A View in Ireland ‎

‎Ireland N.P. C1875 Première édition. Une belle esquisse / caricature au crayon avec un vers de doggerel sur les tourbières d'Irlande. Pas de signature sur le texte ou l'esquisse. En haut, le titre est A view in Ireland. En bas, un homme et une femme s'enfoncent jusqu'à la taille dans une tourbière. Derrière eux, un cheval à l'air très indigné tire un buggy. Ceux-ci s'enfoncent également. En dessous, à l'encre, figure le texte Attachement à la terre natale. Impatient de traverser, les pensées de la maison, fraîches sur ses talons & les appellent vigoureusement dans beaucoup de tentatives vaines. Comme son âme est simple ! Quel noir désespoir, quelles horreurs remplissent son cur ! Sa terrible descente des tourbières infidèles ! Le tout sur une feuille de papier à lettres. Légèrement assombri, et une seule tache de rousseur. blanc au verso. Très léger pli au bord droit. La feuille semble avoir été retirée d'un livre d'autographes. Dans l'ensemble, un joli morceau d'humour irlandais. 19cm x 14cm. .‎

‎First edition. A lovely pencil sketch / caricature with a doggerel verse about the bogs of Ireland. No signature to the text or sketch. To the top is title A view in Ireland. Below is a man and woman sinking to their waists in a bog. Behind them a very indignant looking horse is pulling a buggy. These are also sinking. Below this, in ink, is the text "Attachment to one's native land. Impatient flouncing through, the thoughts of home, fresh on his heels & call them vigourously forth in many a vain attempt. How simple his soul! What black despair, what horrors fills his heart! His dire descent of faithless Bogs!" The whole on a sheet of writing paper. Slightly darkened, and a single foxing spot. blank to verso. Very slight crease to the right edge. The sheet looks as if it may have been removed from an autograph book. Overall a lovely piece of Irish humour. 19cm x 14cm. .‎
