Anyone who wanted to enter the city of Dublin from the north, or leave across the bridge, had to pass the gate of the priory. It was in this priory in the mid-fourteenth century that a Dominican friar named Prior John de Pembridge wrote these Latin annals. This is the first modern edition of the annals of Pembridge (1162-1348), together with those of his anonymous Dominican continuator (1348-70). In 1884, in a two-volume work entitled \u003ci\u003eThe chartularies of St Mary's Abbey, Dublin\u003c\/i\u003e, Sir John Gilbert printed these Latin annals without an English translation. Gilbert's was a rudimentary edition that did not make use of all available manuscripts. In this new edition, Bernadette Williams, the foremost expert on the Latin annals of Anglo-Norman Ireland, presents an authoritative modern edition of these manuscripts with facing translation. The annals, which cover the period 1162-1370, provide a unique window into the political, religious, and social character of the city of Dublin, and Ireland more generally.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bernadette Williams\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1846829658\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781846829659\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Four Courts Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/25\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 420\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Bernadette Williams","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43993066078463,"sku":"9781846829659","price":74.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_aa9b0c4b-d3d3-4831-9616-41585cb9d848.jpg?v=1683322335","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-dublin-annals-of-prior-bernadette-williams-9781846829659","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
