The English Lordship of Ireland and the Irish Sea World: Re-assessing the Origins of the Kildare Ascendancy, c.1390–c.1513
By 1500, the FitzGeralds of Kildare had established themselves as one of the most powerful entities in Ireland. A considerable body of work has been completed on the rise of this dynasty and their relations with the Tudor monarchy. Scholarship has focused primarily on the career of the eighth earl of Kildare, Gerald FitzGerald (d. 1513): his ability to forge alliances with both the colonial and native Irish nobility has been viewed as a core elem…

The rise and fall of the Clann Éinrí Aimhréidh Uí Néill: Dynastic feuding and geopolitics in the late medieval Irish Sea world
During the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries, the Ulster lordship of Tír Eoghain was bitterly contested between two rival branches of the Uí Néill dynasty: the Clann Éinrí Aimhréidh and the Clann Briain Catha an Dúin. Traditionally, historians have focused mainly on the local origins and ramifications of this feud and have paid only cursory attention to how events ranging from the Shannon Estuary through to the Outer Hebrides shaped t…

By Land and by Sea: The Role of the Maritime Sphere in the Expansion of O'Donnell Power ca. 1380-1500
Over the course of the late 14th century and throughout the 15th century, the O'Donnells of Tyrconnell established themselves as one of the most powerful aristocratic dynasties in Ireland. By the early 16th century, the authority of the lords of Tyrconnell extended across most of the northern half of Ireland. Their rise to prominence has received a considerable amount of scholarly attention. Much of this has focused on the expansion of O'Donnell …
Richard II and the Wider Gaelic World: A Reassessment
Although Richard II's Irish expedition of 1394–95 has attracted considerable scholarly attention, the focus has largely been on Richard's relations with the colonial administration in Ireland, pointing mainly to the colonial government's plea for greater royal investment in the colony as the main factor underpinning Richard's decision to intervene in Ireland. Little attention, by comparison, has been devoted to exploring the king's relations with…
