Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Geraldus de Barri, called Cambrensis from Cambris (Wales), the country of his birth, was a member of one of the leading Norman families involved in the invasion of Ireland. He visited Ireland first in 1183 and later returned in the entourage of Henry II. His "Topographia Hiberniae" is an account of Ireland and its early history as seen by a Norman in 1185 CE. The book is divided into three parts. The first part treats of the position of Ireland; the lakes and their islands; the birds and the fish that are missing and those that are not found elsewhere; the fact that no poisonous reptiles are found and those that are brought immediately die or lose their poison. The second part treats of the wonders and miracles of Ireland: the island where no one dies, and where no women can go; the whirlpool of the sea that swallows ships; the stone that contains wine; that the saints of Ireland seem to be of a vindictive cast of mind. The third part describes the inhabitants of the country. Providing an account of his travels, the author describes landscapes, fish, birds and animals. He recounts the history of Ireland's rulers, and tells stories of magic wells and deadly whirlpools, strange creatures and evil spirits. This work is written from the point of view of an invader and reformer. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
