Publisher's Synopsis

The Anglo-Norman Poem On The Conquest Of Ireland By Henry The Second is a historical work written by Francisque Michel in 1837. The book is a translation of a medieval poem that describes the conquest of Ireland by King Henry II of England in the 12th century. The poem was originally written in Old French and tells the story of the Norman invasion of Ireland, which resulted in the establishment of English rule in the country. The book includes an introduction by Michel, which provides historical context for the poem and discusses the significance of the Norman conquest of Ireland. The text is accompanied by footnotes and annotations that explain the historical and cultural references in the poem. This book is an important resource for scholars and students of medieval history, Anglo-Norman literature, and the history of Ireland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
