Abstract:This article considers the historical origin of the two kinds of perfect construction in the Gaelic languages (e.g. ModIr táim tar éisli ndéidh é a dhéanamh and tá sé déanta agam, both roughly 'I have done it'). The apparent descent of the former from a late MidIr and EModIr construction with iar 'after' and the verbal noun is described. The suggestion that the latter is most likely a development of a stative construction (e.g. Modlr tá sé ullamh agam 'I have it ready') is supported. Some related constructions are discussed also. Reflexes in the modern dialects of Ireland, Scotland and Man are described in some detail, and the Hiberno-English 'after' perfect (e.g. I am after doing it) is briefly discussed.
摘要:本文考察了盖尔语中两种完成式结构的历史渊源(如ModIr táim tar samisli和samidh a dhsamanamh和t s dsamanta agam,这两种结构都大致表示“我已经做了”)。描述了前者明显从后期的MidIr和EModIr结构演变而来,带有“after”和动名词。有人认为后者很可能是静态结构的发展(例如,Modlr t s ullamh agam 'I have it ready')。还讨论了一些相关的结构。对现代爱尔兰、苏格兰和Man方言中的反射进行了一些详细的描述,并简要讨论了Hiberno-English的“after”完成时(例如I am after doing it)。

Abstract:This article examines the compilation and transcription of the eighteenth-century source commonly known as the 'Dublin Annals of Inisfallen'. It reviews, in particular, the work's most substantial entries, i.e. those which concern the O'Briens and the history of Thomond in the medieval period, and briefly highlights the historical value of other longer entries relating to the twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. The 'Dublin Annals' attests to the readiness with which scribes indulged in editorial intrusion, while it also offers insights into the factors which impinged upon textual transmission in the Modern Irish period.

it as an adjective in /-oeg/ with the meaning 'pot-like' (or perhaps a full sub stantivisation similar to *mark-ako'horseman' from *marko'horse'). As to the etymology of seit, etc., the one usually quoted is Graves' derivation (1962, 383-4) from a VLat. *sitta, supposedly from CLat. situla 'bucket'. However, VLat. *sitta appears to be inferred from a single MLat. attestation (Du Cange 1938, VII: 498), and the development from CLat. situla would not be regular in any way.

Abstract:This paper revisits the question of Bede's debt to Irish scholarship. It attempts to show exactly which texts of Irish origin Bede used, not only in his scientific treatises but also in his exegetical works, and, perhaps more importantly, how he used them. He seems to have appreciated the synthetic approach of the Irish masters, but did not hesitate to query their scholarship, supplementing their information with classical and Patristic texts. On the other hand, he failed to understand their humour and is found to be led astray by the witticisms of Virgilius Maro Grammaticus. Although Bede does not acknowledge any of Irish masters, his attitude toward the Irish may not have been as negative as it would appear from a modern standpoint.

Abstract:The Middle Irish story relating Niall Frosach's true judgement concerning a young woman and her fatherless child is told as an apologue in a late-sixteenth- or early-seventeenth-century Bardic poem attributed to Tuileagna (mac Torna) Ó Maoil Chonaire, and addressed to Sir Nicholas Walsh, Chief Justice of the Common Pleas and Speaker of the third parliament convened in the reign of Queen Elizabeth, Perrott's parliament of 1585–6. The poem, Labhram ar iongnaibh Éireann, was published in Tomás Ó Raghallaigh's Filí agus filidheacht Chonnacht (1938), but the apologue was censored in that publication. In this article the poem is edited with translation and critical notes from the only manuscript in which it has come down to us—RIA 23 L 17 (RIA 3). The two copies of the Middle Irish text that have survived (from LL and the Liber Flavus Fergusiorum) are also presented and compared in an appendix to the article; and a second appendix provides the text and translation of an Early Modern Irish version of the story found in An Leabhar Eoghanach and published (without translation) by Ó Donnchadha in Leabhar Cloinne Aodha Buidhe.
摘要:关于尼尔·弗罗萨奇(Niall Frosach)对一名年轻女子和她失去父亲的孩子的真实判断的中世纪爱尔兰故事,在16世纪末或17世纪初的一首吟游诗人诗中以辩白的形式讲述,这首诗被认为是Tuileagna (mac Torna) Ó Maoil Chonaire的作品,写给尼古拉斯·沃尔什爵士(Nicholas Walsh),他是伊丽莎白女王统治时期第三届议会的首席大法官,也是1585-6年佩罗特议会的议长。这首诗《Labhram ar iongnaibh Éireann》发表在Tomás Ó Raghallaigh的Filí agus filidheacht Chonnacht(1938)上,但在该出版物中,这首诗的道歉被删节了。在这篇文章中,这首诗的翻译和评论笔记是由它唯一的手稿编辑而来的——RIA 23 L 17 (RIA 3)。幸存下来的两个中古爱尔兰文本副本(来自LL和Liber Flavus Fergusiorum)也在文章的附录中进行了展示和比较;第二个附录提供了在an Leabhar Eoghanach中发现的故事的早期现代爱尔兰语版本的文本和翻译,并由Ó Donnchadha在Leabhar clinne Aodha Buidhe中发表(没有翻译)。

Abstract:This paper considers the distinction between the phonology of Día 'God' and dee 'pagan deity', offering examples from the literature of the latter's use in singular and plural forms. From the Old Irish to the Early Modern Irish period, there existed a word dea/dee/dé with the meaning 'pagan deity'. While día could mean both 'God' and 'god', dee and its variants were used only in the latter sense after the é > ía shift. It would appear, therefore, that, as the pronunciation of dé/dea was shifting to día in the course of the seventh century, the spelling of the archaic form was lexicalised with the meaning 'pagan god'. The rationale behind the coinage, however, is probably not recoverable with any certainty.

Abstract:AbstractThis article is a study of the hitherto unpublished Prologue found in the later versions of Togail Troί (TTr), the Middle Irish history of the Trojan War. The Prologue sets the Trojan War in the context of the descent of nations from the sons of Noah and ultimately from those of Adam, and ends with a series of verses on Trojan genealogy. An edition is presented, based principally on the copy in RIA MS D.iv.2, with commentary and translation. Stemmatic relationships are plotted between this text of the Prologue and those in five other manuscript versions of TTr. The meaning and sources of the Prologue narrative are discussed, and it is argued that these include a variant or derivative of the Apocalypse of Pseudo- Methodius. It is also proposed that there are close affinities with the version of the Leabhar Gabhála represented by fragment H (TCD MS 1316a). Further connections are proposed with Auraicept na nÉces, Saltair na Rann, the Chronicle of Marianus Scottus and the Lecan Synchronisms.
摘要:本文对中古爱尔兰特洛伊战战史《Togail Troί (TTr)》的后期版本中迄今未发表的序言进行了研究。序言将特洛伊战争置于诺亚之子,最终是亚当之子的后裔的背景下,并以一系列关于特洛伊族谱的诗句结束。一个版本主要基于RIA MS D.iv中的副本。2、附解说及翻译。在这篇序言的文本和其他五个TTr手稿版本之间绘制了系统关系。前言叙事的意义和来源进行了讨论,并认为这些包括一个变体或衍生的伪卫理迪乌斯的启示。还提出了与片段H (TCD MS 1316a)所代表的Leabhar Gabhála版本有密切的亲和关系。进一步的联系被提出与Auraicept na nÉces, Saltair na Rann, Marianus Scottus编年史和Lecan同步。
