This 1982 collection of essays examines Ireland's relations with
the rest of western Europe between AD 400 and 1200. They show the
idiosyncratic ways in which Ireland responded to external stimuli
and illustrate the view that early Irish history, religion,
politics and art should be seen not in isolation but as vital
contributors to the development of European culture. This was the
firmly held opinion of Kathleen Hughes, to whose memory these
essays, specially commissioned from leading scholars in the field,
are dedicated. The range of essays reflects the diversity of early
Ireland's history and the extent of her influence upon other
cultures. The ecclesiastical tradition and hagiography form one
area of study; political expansion and diplomatic history, as well
as literary and artistic influences, are also discussed. The
subjects are variously introduced as they affect Ireland's
relations with Scotland, Anglo-Saxon England, Merovingian Gaul, the
Scandinavians and the Welsh.
