- W2489883051 abstract "Surely the most incisive commentary on Ireland and on Irish life ever produced is Topographia Hiberniae, an account written by a man called Gerald de Barri, better known as Giraldus Cambrensis or Gerald of Wales, as a consequence of two visits which he made to the country in 1183 and 1185.2 Gerald, a strong advocate of church reform, was partly Anglo-Norman and partly Welsh, and his family were among the first to settle in Ireland after the invasion of the late 1160s. His commentary on Ireland is therefore not an unbiased one, and in many respects resembles what a European settler in the Americas or Australia in more recent centuries would have said about the indigenous inhabitants there. It is the defence produced by an agent of an invading and conquering army to justify its actions in dispossessing the native peoples, seizing and colonizing their lands, and, if necessary, bringing their way of life to an end. There is not much room here for objectivity. Above all else, Gerald and the countless others like him through the centuries have had one task: that is, to call attention to the deficiencies of the host society and to demonstrate the benefits that will accrue to the aboriginal population as a result of their conquest." @default.
