Download or read book Art and Devotion in Late Medieval Ireland written by Rachel Moss and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The religious art of early Christian Ireland has attracted much scholarly and popular attention. In contrast the devotional world of later medieval Ireland has, until recently, been relatively neglected. This multi-disclipinary volume redresses this by examining the material culture of late medieval Irish devotion against its artistic, historical, theological and liturgical background. The contributors draw on recent advances in international scholarship to provide a broader context for the Irish material. Subjects examined include: wall paintings, metalwork, shrines and reliquaries, manuscripts and books of hours, stained glass and vestments. Other contributions deal with the religious imagery of Irish bardic poetry and the cults of the Virgin Mary and St. Francis of Assisi.

Download or read book The Mason and His Mark written by Colum Hourihane and published by BAR British Series. This book was released on 2000 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gothic architecture was first introduced into Ireland by the 12th-century church reform movement and during the Anglo-Norman conquest in the 13th century. Little evidence survives to identify the imported workforce except for their individual signature marks which are not found before the conquest. Houritane presents a thorough study of the marks to untangle the complicated regional architecture of medieval Ireland. The marks have enabled him to place a number of important buildings within groups and thereby propose a new dating framework for the buildings. The study of the organisation and schools of masonry and the typology of marks, is followed by a comprehensive catlogue with illustrations of the marks.

Download or read book The Franciscans in Ireland 1400 1534 written by Colmán N. Ó Clabaigh and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Franciscan Order was one of the most remarkable and influential forces in medieval and early modern Irish society. While the earlier and later phases of the movement have attracted the historian's notice, the remarkable second flowering, which occurred between 1400 and 1534, has not been explained until now. This study traces the reforming tendencies among the friars from the beginning of the fifteenth century to the eve of the Reformation. The most important group to emerge were the Observant friars, recognised as an independent body in 1460. The emergence of groups of lay people living according to the rule of the Franciscan Third Order is also fully explored as well as the developments among the Conventual (or unreformed) Friars. A major feature of this work is the emphasis placed on the lifestyle of the friars themselves. Particular attention is paid to their religious, liturgical and disciplinary practises, their educational and governmental structures and their impact as preachers and confessors as demonstrated by the material listed in the library catalogue of the Youghal Friary between 1490 and 1523. The first complete edition of this important and unique document is given as an appendix.
