  This chapter argues that later political events influenced the preservation of poetry and considers the interaction between the Viking and Norman diasporas. It is likely that more Norse skaldic verse was produced and performed in the Hebrides and Ireland but that it does not survive due to the weakening of the diaspora and decreased connections with Iceland. This contrasts to the earldom of Orkney’s strong skaldic tradition. There is limited French material from the study area as it was overtaken by English. The two main French poems from Ireland, La geste des Engleis en Yrlande, chronicling the Anglo-Norman invasion, and The Walling of New Ross represent a new community establishing itself. The only French poem from Scotland in this period, the Roman de Fergus, allows an outsider to join an aristocratic community, but at the expense of his previous identity and independence. The literary merits of this French poetry are only recently being recognised by modern scholars.

  This article examines the evidence for a specific instance of fosterage in the eleventh century: an item in the Annals of the Four Masters which claims that Tairdelbach Ua Briain, king of Munster, was the foster-son of Diarmait mac Máel na mBó, king of Leinster. The timing and possible circumstances for this arrangement will be considered. It is argued that the later association between Tairdelbach and Diarmait has made scholars more accepting of a potential fosterage relationship. This discussion has wider implications for the study of fosterage in medieval Ireland, particularly in a political and dynastic context.
