520 $a"A History of Medieval Ireland is an authoritative account of Irish history from the Norman invasion in 1170 to the passing of Poymimngs laws in 1494. A.J. Otway-Ruthven, a member of the Royal Irish Academy and a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, has given us a major work on Ireland, one that will be warmly received by both medievalists and students of Irish history. Ms. Otway-Ruthven concentrates on the political and constitutional structure of the Norman-Irish colony during this period when Irish lords became virtually independent and were increasingly hostile to the English. At the same time officials in Dublin were desperately trying to keep peace between rival Irish clans. It was an important period in the course of Irish history because it laid the groundwork for many of the conflicts which would later cause Ireland to erupt in rebellion against the British. Ms. Otway-Ruthven, in A History of Medieval Ireland, provides a clear, balanced, and accurate account of this important period in the history of Ireland."--Jacket.
