Description:

Where does Irish history come from? During the 1630s a small group of scholars, led by the Franciscan Mícheál Ó Cléirigh, wrote an entire history of Ireland from the beginning of time right up to their own day. In doing so they drew on centuries of myth, story and annalistic compilation. The questions about the past that these pioneers asked of themselves and their now-lost sources are at the heart of this course. Who are the Irish? What is Ireland? The answers they provided set the scene for an understanding of the island and its people which had a profound effect for almost four centuries.insight into the creation of central narratives of Irishness.
