X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:Irish Kingship and the invasion
of 1169
Diarmait Mac Murchada's expulsion from Leinste
r in 1166 set in motion a chain of events that would drastically alter the
political map of medieval Ireland. Ireland, unlike the comparatively cent
ralized Angevin kingdom of England, was, on the eve of invasion, a land of
many kings. This lecture traces the development of kingship in Ireland in
the centuries preceding the invasion; explores Irish responses to the Eng
lish invasion; and examines the ways in which Irish kingship was conceptua
lized both by the Irish kings themselves and by English and foreign chroni
clers.
Speaker: Dr Ronan Mulhaire works in Hibernia
College and holds a PhD in medieval history from Trinity College Dublin.
His first monograph, Irish kingship in the eleventh and twelfth centuries.
Approaches to the study of power was published by Routledge in 2025. Rona
n has also published articles on violence and regicide in eleventh- and tw
elfth-century Ireland, and on the history and development of wrestling in
nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Ireland.
