Irish dress history sources online:

A list of sources for Irish dress history research that free to access on the internet:

Primary and period sources:

Text Sources:

Corpus of Electronic Texts (CELT): a database of historical texts from or about Ireland. Most have both their original text and, where applicable, an English translation. Authors include: Francisco de Cuellar, Luke Gernon, John Dymmok, Thomas Gainsford, Fynes Moryson, Edmund Spenser, Laurent Vital, Tadhg Dall Ó hUiginn

Images:

The Edwin Rae Collection: A collection of photographs of Irish carvings dating 1300-1600 taken by art historian Edwin Rae in the mid-20th c. Includes tomb effigies and other figural art.

National Library of Ireland: Has a nice collection of 18th-20th c. Irish art and photographs. Search their catalog or browse their flickr.

Irish Script on Screen: A collection of scans of medieval Irish manuscripts, including The Book of Ballymote.

The Book of Kells: Scans of the whole thing.

The Image of Irelande, with a Discoverie of Woodkarne by John Derricke published 1581. A piece of anti-Irish propaganda that should be used with caution. Illustrations. Complete text.

Secondary sources:

Irish History from Contemporary Sources (1509-1610) by Constantia Maxwell published 1923. Contains a nice collection of primary source quotes, but it sometimes modernizes the 16th c. English in ways that are detrimental to the accuracy, like changing 'cote' to 'coat'. The original text for many of them can be found on CELT, archive.org, or google books.

An Historical Essay on the Dress of the Ancient and Modern Irish By Joseph Cooper Walker published 1788. Makes admirable use of primary sources, but because of Walker's assumption that Irish dress didn't change for the entirety of the Middle Ages, it is significantly flawed in a lot of its conclusions. Mostly only useful now for historiography. I discussed the images in this book here.

Chapter 18: Dress and Personal Adornment from A Smaller Social History of Ancient Ireland by P. W. Joyce published 1906. Suffers from similar problems to An Historical Essay on the Dress of the Ancient and Modern Irish.

Consumption and Material Culture in Sixteenth-Century Ireland Susan Flavin's 2011 doctoral thesis. A valuable source on the kinds of materials that were available in 16th c Ireland.

A Descriptive Catalogue of the Antiquities in the Museum of the Royal Irish Academy Volumes 1 and 2 by William Wilde, published 1863. Obviously outdated, and some of Wilde's conclusions are wrong, because archaeologists didn't know how to date things in the 19th century, but his descriptions of the individual artifacts are worthwhile. Frustratingly, this is still the best catalog available to the public for the National Museum of Ireland Archaeology. Idk why the NMI doesn't have an online catalog, a lot museums do nowadays.

Volume I: Articles of stone, earthen, vegetable and animal materials; and of copper and bronze

Volume 2: A Descriptive Catalogue of the Antiquities of Gold in the Museum of the Royal Irish Academy

A Horsehair Woven Band from County Antrim, Ireland: Clues to the Past from a Later Bronze Age Masterwork by Elizabeth Wincott Heckett 1998

Jewellery, art and symbolism in Medieval Irish society by Mary Deevy in Art and Symbolism in Medieval Europe- Papers of the 'Medieval Europe Brugge 1997' Conference (page 77 of PDF)

Looking the part: dress and civic status and ethnicity in early-modern Ireland by Brid McGrath 2018

Irish Mantles, English Nationalism: Apparel and National Identity in Early Modern English and Irish Texts by John R Ziegler 2013

Dress and ornament in early medieval Ireland - exploring the evidence by Maureen Doyle 2014

Dress and accessories in the early Irish tale, ‘The Wooing of Becfhola’ by Niamh Whitfield 2006

A tenth century cloth from Bogstown Co. Meath by Elizabeth Wincott Heckett 2004

Tertiary Sources:

Medieval Ireland: An Encyclopedia edited by Sean Duffy published 2005

Re-Examining the Evidence: A Study of Medieval Irish Women's Dress from 750 to 900 CE by Alexandra McConnell

77 - The Horrific Merge

Part 78

Gemini Runaway

@icefrye19 @secretdreamlandmentality

Jo had been forced to take her magic back before Kai killed Liv. And there was supposed to be an eclipse tonight meaning the two twins would merge in place of Liv and Luke. Leading my girls through the streets Jaocb was with us. “I don’t understand why we don’t just use the spell we used on our daughters on the rest of our family we care about.”

“Because I don’t have our uncle’s leader's blood in my grasp anymore. In order for the transfer to take I need his specific blood.” I corrected my brother’s statement. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to save Jo, Liv and Luke. But I just couldn’t physically do it. I designed the spell to attack the specific curse on our bloodline with the coven.

He carried Andrea in his arm’s sighing until he noticed someone strolling in front of us. “I guess so. Uh Rae, we’ve got a problem.”

“What are you - what the hell do you want Kai?” I glanced in his direction seeing Kai strolling up to us whistling a tune.

He smirks, stopping in front of us. “Awe are these your kids. They’ll be cute to kill.”

“Invisquie.” I snapped my fingers where nobody else on the street could see us now. Knowing that we would probably be magic fighting in a few moments. “If you lay a hand on my kids I will skin you alive!”

Kai stepped forward bending down trying to act all nice to get the girls to come forward. “Awe I’m not going to hurt them, Rae Rae. Hey sweeties, do you want a present from your cousin Kai.”

“What kind of presents?” Missy asked moving forward where he touched her fingers with his making her wince when he attempted to siphon from her.

Alina takes my hand in hers, throwing him backwards on the concrete. “Phasmatos Motus!”

“Uh you little bitch. Phasmatos incendia.” He raised his hand trying to hurt her with fire. Yet nothing happens with the rest of us just looking at him. “What that’s not possible. I siphoned her magic. We share blood.”

Jaocb just smirked at him. “You can’t hurt any of us anymore, jerk.”

“What the hell did you do, cousin?” Kai growled, getting to his feet.

Tugging Missy back behind with Hope I let Alina keep standing between me and my brother. “Our parents might be related through blood, yes. But as far as being able to siphon or kill us. You have no power over us. Thanks to my binding spell.”

“You can’t do this, Phasmatos navaro pulsus sanguinox!” Kai tried again, more frustrated that nothing was working.

Alina smirked towards her second cousin launching his blood spell back at him. ““Reboundus!”

“Ah!” He collapsed onto the ground wincing up at us.

Walking towards him I let go of my daughter's hand leaving her standing by her uncle J. Bending on my knees to my cousin I growled in his face. “The next time you try to come after my family. I want you to remember this feeling. And I won’t let you kill Josette, Luke or Olivia ever!”

Turning on my heels we left him there heading to the restaurant we were going to before he found us. It was actually a nice evening until I saw Luke and Liv come inside with our uncle following them inside. “Why are they here, Rae?” Jacob asked knowing I was better with my vamp ears.

“There's nothing to figure out. This is what you were born to do.” Our uncle blabbered off.

Liv rolled her eyes. “No, dad. This is why Kai and Jo were born. We were just the backup plan you bred because you thought that your first batch had a design flaw.”

Joshua raised his voice. “Kai is a psychopath. An extremely dangerous one.”

Liv was trying to convince him to use her sister instead. “Dad, Jo can do this. She can win. All we're asking is that you give her a chance.”

Joshua reached for their hands. “I'm not asking you to do anything I haven't done myself.”

Liv scoffed at her father. “That's easy for you to say. You merged with your twin brother and you won. You didn't drop dead.”

Joshua attempted to make it sound better. “It doesn't work like that and you know it. One will absorb traits from the other. Both of your souls will unite into a new being.”

“A load of bull crap that the merge is a good thing. Let’s get out of here.” Paying for the bill we headed outside into the alleyway buying the girls all ice cream. Halting in my tracks we passed the back alleyway of the restaurant seeing the three standing outside looking at the stars.

“What are you doing out here?” Liv paused beside her twin asking their father.

Joshua turned back towards them smiling. “Just thinking about how proud I am of you and your brother. Built a good life for yourselves here.”

Luke asked his father. “Does that mean you'll think about what we asked?”

“At least you have sympathy to tell them about the curse this family has. You didn’t share the same emotion towards me and my brother. But maybe our mother was right to call you an asshole.” I strided up the group taking a bite out of my cookie dough ice cream.

Joshua turned slightly to us eyeing our daughters. “Rae. J, it’s nice to see you. Oh and are these your kids.”

“Yes. Now what do you want?” Jacob questioned him tugging his daughter against his leg, having the same suspicions that I already did.

He slowly bent down to be level with Alina, Missy and Hope. He sent them each a smile while I glared at my uncle. “I simply wanted to meet them and introduce myself. After all, I am their great uncle Joshua.”

“Mommy, says you’re mean to her.” Missy said licking her strawberry come.

Alina takes a step away from him. “That we shouldn’t trust you.”

“No, no sweet girls. She just is worried I would hurt you. But that’s not true at all. We share a history. A bloodline.” Joshua holds out his hands, one to each of them. “We're in this together. We're family.”

Hope steps around my leg seeing her sister's hand turning red meaning they were feeling his magic. She tilted her head to the side. “Mommy, is that supposed to happen?” She pointed to the lights flickering around us and the wind was picking up speed.

“Son of bitch, Rae. He’s-“ Jacob cut himself off.

Dropping my cone on the ground, my veins and fangs coming to the surface once I realized. “You bastard!”

Joshua starts the merge ceremony but he growls not be able to feel their twin connection in his veins. “Sanguinem desimilus, sanguinem generis fiantus…urgh why isn’t it working?”

Luke gasped. “You're merging them?”

Joshua grunted while Missy and Alina tried to pull away but he’s stronger than them. “Kai has been released. He's going after Jo. I can't let him get to her.”

Liv begged him. “Dad, stop!”

Luke shouted at him. “They’re just kids, dad. They are only six years old!”

“Sanguinem desimilus, sanguinem generis fiantus - argh Raelyn!” Uncle Joshua finally released their hands holding his head in agony. Missy and Alina rushed over to Jaocb, Hope and Andrea scared. Luke quickly ran of somewhere while Liv stayed with us but I couldn’t care right now.

Vamping him against the crate beside us he grunted sharply. Baring my teeth my hands were wrapped around his throat getting in his face. “You’re a bastard, uncle Joshua. You forced me and my brother to merge and when that didn’t work the way you wanted you came for my daughters!”

“I can’t let Kai merge with Jo. He will win and be the new leader. He will kill us all.” He grunted through my fingertips when I drew some blood from how tightly I held his neck.

Moving one hand to his chest I shoved my hand inside his chest holding his heart. “I may not be able to kill you because I don’t want the twins and Josette dead. But I will do so for this. Tell me, have you ever been skinned alive!”

“I can show you what is happening, Raelyn!” Joshua winced when my fingers tightened a little around his heart.

“And I’m just supposed to believe what you show me is the truth. Since you have such a good track record of telling the truth. I’d rather do it myself.”

Joshua moaned in pain when I ripped a cut open on his hand that was holding onto my forearm with my fangs drawing blood. “Ahhh!”

“Show me, uncle!” Sanguinem desimilus, Sanguinem generis flantes…Tillate ulaz tillate ulaz tillate ulaz. Tillate ulaz tillate ulaz tillate ulaz.” I chanted ripping into my own palm, shoving it over his bleeding hand doing the spell transfer of leader magic that would force me into his mind space.

Kai had taken Jo out into the middle of the park from what I could see when I mind dived to see what he saw. Jo grumbled to her twin. “Let's just get this over with.”

Kai cut his hand open. “So if this is just another setup, I'll rip something out more important than a spleen. Like a tongue or a heart. So, any closing remarks?”

“You're a parasite. You killed the people I loved, you shoved a hunting Knife in my gut. You destroyed my life. Now I'm gonna destroy yours.” Jo holds out her hand for Kai to cut.

Kai jerks it and cuts it. “I guess we'll see. Won't we?”

Jo took his other hand and began chanting. “Sanguinem desimilus, sanguinem generis fiantus.”

Jo and Kai then began chanting together. “Sanguinem desimilus, sanguinem generis fiantus.Sanguinem desimilus, sanguinem generis fiantus.” Until Jo fell backwards and I saw a new image flash through our minds.

Kai and Luke were chanting when I entered his mind again. “Sanguinem desimilus, sanguinem generis fiantus. Sanguinem desimilus-- “

Jo cried. “Luke, no!”

“Sanguinem generis fiantus. Sanguinem desimilus, sanguinem generis fiantus.” Luke and Kai's eyes both turn white.

Jo sobbed. “Luke! Stop!”

“Sanguinem desimilus, sanguinem generis fiantus. Sanguinem desimilus, sanguinem generis fiantus.” Kai and Luke fell backwards, unconscious with Jo crying out.

I dived out of my uncle's mind, drawing my other hand from his chest. I growled through tears stumbling away from him. Joshua dropped to his feet gasping for breath while he locked gazes with me after I had dropped his body from my grasp. “What has your brother done?….what have you done Raelyn? Why couldn’t I feel your daughter's magic, yours or your brothers!”

“Because I used your own spell against you. When you wanted your magic back so badly I had my daughters collect up your blood. Then I did an unlinking spell.” I snarled, clutching my hands into fists not caring about the blood on my right hand or the fact that my daughters were huddled behind their uncle Jacob.

Joshua sniffed through tears seeing the blood on his chest bleeding until he placed a hand over it healing the wound. “Kai will kill us all regardless of a spell that keeps your daughters from having to do the merge….”

“Urgh….hell no!” I winced holding a hand over my heart inside my chest being able to feel the leader magic that I had siphoned from my uncle was now disappearing somewhere else.

Joshua holds his hand out to Liv. “We have to leave. Now.”

Jacob threatened him. “She's not going anywhere with you.”

Joshua declared. “Luke is gone.” His gaze shifted to mine with a horrific look feeling what I had minutes ago.

Liv gasped looking between me and her father. “What? Rae, he can’t be serious.”

Clutching my eyes closed, the vision of Jacob collapsing in front of me flashed through my mind. Releasing my hands from fists I shook my head sniffing through tears. “Liv I, I wish it wasn’t true. But Luke…he’s…”

Joshua finished my train of thought, still terrified. “I can feel it. He merged with Kai and Kai won. Luke is gone.”

Liv began crying. “I don't believe you.”

Joshua grabs Liv's arm trying to drag her away from us. “We have to run, Olivia!”

Liv drew her arm back hugging onto Jacob. “I'm not going anywhere with you!” Joshua sent me a silent look running off into the darkness of night. Slowly walking up to Liv she collapsed against my body when I opened my arms just holding the poor girl. I would never wish the fate I had suffered on her. Now we had to accept that Kai was in charge….for now at least.

Spotify end-of-year overview!

So that is what Spotify claims.

However I requested a download of my data through Spotify to find the truth, because once again I was missing K3.

(^Because the GDPR is the thing that makes this all possible, it should get some recognition)

This year seems actually less off than other years, but again I was right in missing K3.

These are my actual top artists:

1) Taylor Swift (with 7432 minutes listened) 2) K3 (with 5683 minutes listened) 3) Olivia Rodrigo (with 1981 minutes listened) 4) Ed Sheeran (with 1779 minutes listened) 5) SIX (with 1048 minutes listened)

This seems pretty comparable to what Spotify is saying, of course with K3 inserted. HOWEVER, Lin-Manuel Miranda is only 9th on my list?? The Matilda the Musical cast, Queen and Shania Twain are all ranked higher. A possible answer to this is that it seems like the data Spotify gave me has trouble with tracks featuring multiple artists. All those songs only list one artist. It could be that all the musical ensemble songs are therefore not properly taken into account.

Okay, so moving on to my top songs, I once read that your wrapped top 10 is supposed to be accurate and the other 90 songs are more randomly placed to give a better division of songs in the playlist, so lets list all 10 songs they gave me:

1) The Man 2) All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor's Version) (From The Vault) 3) good 4 u 4) Would've, Could've, Should've 5) We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together (Taylor's Version) 6) Man! I Feel Like A Woman! 7) brutal 8) Promises 9) Anti-Hero 10) Eyes Closed

And the top 10 songs I got from the data:

1) The Man (with 110 streams) 2) All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor's Version) (From The Vault) (with 104 streams) 3) Kijk ons nou (uit Liefde Voor Muziek) - Live (with 89 streams) 4) Would've, Could've, Should've (with 85 streams) 5) good 4 u (with 84 streams) 6) We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together (Taylor's Version) (with 84 streams) 7) Part of Your World (Carly Rae Jepsen cover) (with 81 streams) 8) deja vu (with 79 streams) 9) brutal (with 78 streams) 10) Oya Lélé (with 77 streams)

And these are the spots of the songs not in my actual top 10:

11) Man! I Feel Like A Woman! (with 74 streams) 12) Eyes Closed (with 74 streams) 13) Promises (with 73 streams) 15) Anti-Hero (with 71 streams)

There are 2 K3 songs in my top 10!!

Some things to note here is that while the order is kinda fucked up beyond missing K3, it might not be as bad as it seems, because 1) I don't know the exact cut-off time for the data collection for Wrapped. I think it was up to november 14th, because that gets the minutes listened to Taylor Swift closest to what the slideshow was telling me (3 minutes off), but it could also be November 12th or 13th (I barely listened to Spotify on the 13th, so I can't say anything about that, but the 12th brings my top song amount closest to what Spotify tells me).

And 2) when I pause a song and later continue, it gets listed as two plays in the data. This could be fixed in my stats program, but I haven't done that (yet) so that might put the number of streams I counted a bit higher than the number of actual streams, and especially since some numbers are very close together this might change the order. We can also see this when I sort the songs by number of minutes listened. This will obviously put all too well (10 minute version) on top, but with only 835 minutes listened, instead of the more than 1000 you would expect from 104 streams.

And that was me dragging Spotify for this year, however it actually sort of made sense this year so it wasn't too bad for them. The only question I still have is: WHERE IS K3???

#I also just discovered I listened to Ed Sheeran's The Man exactly once but my code counted it as Taylor Swift's song #I should make a more sophisticated program at some point #spotify wrapped #i made an original post #I compiled all this data with Python btw
