Abstract

ant period in the history of the medieval lordship, while not losing sight of the contemporary major historical developments. This is reinforced by the many first-rate illustrations contained in this study, many of which are colour plates taken specifically by the authors. Indeed, many readers might be surprised to learn that so many sites and artefacts in Ireland still survive to this day to indicate the importance of the Crusades to medieval Ireland. Sometimes, though, the remains no longer survive so that the only knowledge we have of them is from the written sources; the best example of this is arguably the principal Hospitaller preceptory at Kilmainham, Co. Dublin, which has disappeared in the westward expansion of post-medieval Dublin City. In the end, readers should be convinced that, although the overall numbers of crusaders who originated from Ireland was quite small, they often punched well above their weight in this period, as is richly illustrated by the career of Hugh De Lacey II in a parallel campaign against the heretical Cathars in the Languedoc region of southern France. This new volume successfully builds upon earlier scholarly research, mainly historically based, and now presents us with a much fuller picture, as expertly summarised by O’Keeffe in his Epilogue. Without doubt this book reflects the currently vibrant state of medieval studies here in Ireland, and should therefore be on the reading list of any medieval researcher.

爱尔兰塔楼。《社会、经济与环境》,约1300–1650年
蚂蚁时期在中世纪贵族的历史上,同时也不失当代重大的历史发展。这项研究中包含的许多一流的插图强化了这一点,其中许多是作者专门拍摄的彩色图板。事实上,许多读者可能会惊讶地发现,爱尔兰仍有如此多的遗址和文物留存至今,这表明十字军东征对中世纪爱尔兰的重要性。然而,有时,这些遗骸不再存在,因此我们对它们的唯一了解来自书面资料;这方面最好的例子可以说是都柏林Kilmainham公司的主要医院院长,该医院在中世纪后的都柏林市向西扩张中消失了。最后,读者应该相信,尽管来自爱尔兰的十字军总人数很少,但在这一时期,他们的打击力度往往远远超过他们的体重,休·德·莱西二世在法国南部朗格多克地区与异教徒卡塔尔人的平行战役中的职业生涯就充分说明了这一点。这本新书成功地建立在早期学术研究的基础上,主要基于历史,现在向我们展示了一个更全面的画面,正如奥基夫在他的后记中熟练地总结的那样。毫无疑问,这本书反映了爱尔兰目前充满活力的中世纪研究状况,因此应该在任何中世纪研究人员的阅读清单上。

期刊介绍: The Society for Medieval Archaeology exists to further the study of the period from the 5th to the 16th century A.D. by publishing a journal of international standing dealing primarily with the archaeological evidence, and by other means such as by holding regular meetings and arranging conferences. It aims to serve as a medium for co-ordinating the work of archaeologists with that of historians and scholars in any other discipline relevant to this field. While maintaining a special concern for the medieval archaeology of Britain and Ireland, the Society seeks to support and advance the international study of this period. The journal provides a forum for the discussion of important finds and developments within this period from anywhere in the world.
