Clans and Dynasties of Ireland talks with Brehon Academy

Dive into an enthralling conversation with Michéal Doyle, the passionate historian behind the Clans and Dynasties channels, where he brings the vibrant history of Ireland and Scotland’s clans and noble families to life.

In this in-depth discussion, we explore the origins of the Doyle name, tracing its roots through Ireland’s storied past, and celebrate the legacy of the legendary High King Brian Boru, a pivotal figure in Irish history.

Michéal sheds light on influential clans such as O’Sullivan, Butler, Flanagan, O’Rourke, and O’Reilly, diving into the intense rivalry between the O’Rourkes and O’Reillys over the Kingdom of Breifne.

We also examine the impact of Norman families like Burke and Fitzgerald, whose influence reshaped medieval Ireland and discuss the impact of the 1366 Statutes of Kilkenny and its failure to prevent the Anglo-Normans from becoming "more Irish than the Irish themselves."

Adding to the tapestry, Michéal discusses the Viking legacy, from the Gall-Gaels to the Hiberno-Norse, revealing their cultural and martial contributions to the region’s history.

Perfect for history enthusiasts and those curious about their Irish or Scottish heritage, this conversation is a captivating journey through centuries of dynastic struggles and triumphs.
