| Opplysninger | This is the third title in the series of publications ancillary to ÔÇÿA New History of IrelandÔÇÖ and the first volume in a series of ÔÇÿIrish Medieval TextsÔÇÖ. These are editions of medieval works dealing with the history of Ireland. Giraldus Cambrensis, ÔÇÿGerald of WalesÔÇÖ, was a prolific writer and influential figure in the twelfth century Renaissance, a period of social, political and economic transformation in Europe. His irreplaceable account of the coming of the Normans to Ireland in AD 1166-1185 was the first Irish history book to be written by a non-Irish author. Here it is translated into English by two of IrelandÔÇÖs then leading scholars.
