Everything about The Fragmentary Annals Of Ireland totally explained
The
Fragmentary Annals of Ireland are a
Middle Irish combination of chronicle from various
Irish annals and narrative history. They were compiled in the
kingdom of Osraige, probably in the lifetime of
Donnchad mac Gilla Patráic (died 1039),
king of Osraige and of
king of Leinster.
The Fragmentary Annals survive in a single example copied in 1643 by
Dubhaltach Mac Fhirbhisigh from a lost fifteenth century original by Giolla na Naomh Mac Aodhagáin (died c.1443). Mac Fhirbhisigh's manuscript is incomplete and includes five fragments of annals beginning in 573 and ending in 914. The manuscript is currently held by the
Royal Library of Belgium. What has survived joins the synopsis of the hypothetical
Chronicle of Ireland.
Two modern editions of the Fragmentary Annals have been published:
- John O'Donovan (editor & translator) Annals of Ireland: three fragments. (Dublin 1860)
- Joan N. Radner (editor & translator) Fragmentary annals of Ireland (Dublin 1978)
