Book excerpt: This Collection of Studies on the history of Gaelic Ireland is the product of four years of an essay competition sponsored jointly by the Standing Council of Irish Chiefs and Chieftains (Buanchomhairle Thaoisigh Éireann) and Clans of Ireland (Finte na hÉireann). The works represent the winning entries and superior-quality essays from 2013 to 2016, and cover the period ranging from the twelfth to the seventeenth century. The study themes range from political and social history to kinship and culture, relating to a selection of Gaelic Irish, Anglo-Norman and Scottish population groups who shared the island. The first volume in this series, Gaelic Ireland (c.600-c. 1700): politics, culture and landscapes, edited by Katharine Simms (Wordwell, 2013), was the fruit of a competition initiated by the Standing Council of Irish Chiefs and Chieftains, with the object both of encouraging research into Gaelic Ireland among budding postgraduate historians and of reaping the harvest of independent researchers, while always requiring a full academic apparatus of footnotes and bibliography. The continuance of the competition, and the appearance of this second anthology under the joint sponsorship of Clans of Ireland and the Standing Council of Irish Chiefs and Chieftains, testifies to the success of the original project. The essay competition continues to this day and will hopefully go on to achieve its joint aims of spurring the interest of a rising generation of Irish researchers and of disseminating information about a somewhat under-studied but vital part of our nation's past.
