Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book opens by challenging common preconceptions about Ireland's Anglo-Norman invasion. The author argues that while Irish accounts of the era are fraught with fanciful details, their flaws have led to valuable insight into the era. Furthermore, the author contends that Irish society was anything but idyllic prior to the invasion, suffering from a lack of unity, economic stagnation, and endless conflict. Drawing from a wide range of sources, from papal correspondence to Irish genealogies, the author paints a vivid picture of a complex and turbulent era, exploring the power dynamics between chieftains and the church and analyzing the legal framework that shaped Irish society. This book reframes one of the most impactful events in Irish history, offering a nuanced and thought-provoking examination of Ireland on the cusp of dramatic upheaval. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
