  2. ‘... the language of the Arthurian text in question has become a key means by which we, as scholars, categorize these narratives, such that volumes devoted to the study of this literature frequently divorce text from original context.’ Leah Tether a Johnny McFadyen (gol.), Handbook of Arthurian Romance. King Arthur’s Court in Medieval European Literature (Berlin: De Gruyter, 2017), t. 2.

  7. David Comyn (gol. & cyf.), The History of Ireland by Geoffrey Keating, vol. 1 (London: Irish Texts Society, 1902) ‘it is not conceivable that he [i.e., Muircheartach, son of Earc, the Irish king contemporary with Arthur] who was in so much power, should have been tributary to King Arthur.’ (t. 15) ‘it is evident that neither Arthur, nor any other foreign potentate, ever had supremacy over Ireland from the beginning till the Norman invasion; and, moreover, it is not conceivable that the Britons had any control over Ireland, since even the Romans did not venture to meddle with it.’ (t. 17)

  8. ‘... mhic meirbi mhic artuir mhic iubair .i. righ in domain gan rusan’ (Meirbi mab Arthur mab Uther, penfrenin y byd)
