Bhreathnach, Edel, Ireland in the medieval world, AD 400–1000: landscape, kingship and religion, Dublin: Four Courts Press, 2014. 316 pp.  
abstract:
Aimed at the student and general reader, this is a study of Ireland’s people, landscape and place in the world from late antiquity to the reign of Brian Bórama. It narrates the story of Ireland’s emergence into history, using anthropological, archaeological, historical and literary evidence. Subjects covered include the king, the kingdom and the royal household; religion and customs; free and unfree classes in society; exiles and foreigners. The rural, urban, ecclesiastical, ceremonial and mythological landscapes of early medieval Ireland anchor the history of early Irish society in the rich tapestry of archaeological sites, monuments and place-names that have survived to the present. A historiography of medieval Irish studies presents the commentaries of a variety of scholars from the 17th-century Franciscan Mícheál Ó Cléirigh to Eoin Mac Neill, the founding father of modern scholarship.

Bhreathnach, Edel, “Benedictine influence in Ireland in the late eleventh and early twelfth centuries: a reflection”, The Journal of Medieval Monastic Studies 1 (2012): 63–91.  
abstract:

This paper concentrates on two aspects of ecclesiastical reform in Ireland: the formation and layout of sedes episcopalis (diocesan centres) and the influence of clerics trained as Benedictines in England and Scotland during the same period. The contribution of the Benedictines declined as the twelfth century progressed and as other orders such as the Cistercians and Augustinians expanded their influence. Finally, the study assesses the possible contribution of continental Irish Benedictine foundations and proposes that literature produced in these monasteries should be read primarily as Benedictine narratives written in the context of continental ecclesiastical and order politics.
