Wexford Castles : Environment, Settlement and Society
Billy Colfer's Wexford Castles expands the IRISH LANDSCAPES series by taking a thematic approach, while still staying loyal to the central landscape focus.Rather than adapting a narrowly architectural approach, he situates these buildings in a superbly reconstructed historical, social, and cultural milieu.County Wexford has three strikingly different regions - the Anglo-Norman south, the hybridised middle and the Gaelic north - which render it a remarkable version in parvo of the wider island.Colfer's wide-angle lens takes in so much than the castles themselves, as he ranges widely and deeply in reading these striking buildings as texts, revealing the cultural assumptions and historical circumstances which shaped them.In this most cosmopolitan of counties, we range far and wide in search of the wide-spreading roots of its cultural landscape - from the Crusades and the Mani peninsula in Greece to the Bristol Channel, from Crac des Chevaliers to Westminster, from the Viking north and the cold Atlantic to the warm Mediterranean south. The book breaks new ground in exploring the long-run cultural shadow cast by the Anglo-Normans and their castles, as this appears in the Gothic Revival, in the poetry of Yeats and in the surprisingly profuse crop of Wexford historians and writers.While most books on a single architectural form can end up visually monotonous, creativity has been lavished on this volume in terms of keeping the images varied, fresh and constantly appealing.The result is a sympathetic and innovative treatment of the castles, understood not just as a mere architectural form, but as keys to unlocking the mentalite of those who lived in them.Wexford Castles: landscape, context and settlement is a worthy conclusion of Billy's Colfer's superb trilogy of landscape studies.

Medieval Settlement Research No. 38, 2023 : The Journal of the Medieval Settlement Research Group
Medieval Settlement Research is the journal of the Medieval Settlement Research Group (MSRG), a long-established, widely recognised and open multi-disciplinary research group that facilitates collaboration between archaeologists, geographers, historians and other interested parties.The Group is dedicated to developing understanding of rural settlements and their associated landscapes between the 5th and 16th centuries AD.To achieve these aims, the MSRG organises Spring and Winter Seminars each year, offers research and travel grants, awards the annual John Hurst Memorial Prize for the best postgraduate paper, and publishes an annual journal, Medieval Settlement Research. The journal is an internationally recognised publication containing research papers, scholarly articles, fieldwork reports, news and reviews.Although the MSRG’s interests are concentrated primarily on British and Irish medieval landscapes between the 5th and 16th centuries AD, it actively encourages wider chronological and pan-European perspectives.Medieval Settlement Research therefore welcomes papers relating to Britain, Ireland and the rest of Europe that help us to improve our understanding of medieval settlements and landscapes from the level of individual sites to the international scale.

What is the best natural science: Math, Physics, Biology, Chemistry, or Computer Science?
It is subjective to determine the "best" natural science as each field has its own unique contributions to our understanding of the natural world. Math provides the foundation for understanding and solving problems in all the other sciences. Physics explores the fundamental laws of nature and the behavior of matter and energy. Biology studies living organisms and their interactions with the environment. Chemistry focuses on the composition, structure, and properties of matter. Computer Science deals with the theory and practice of computation and information. Each of these sciences is valuable in its own right and contributes to our understanding of the world around us.

Which subject should be removed: Chemistry, Biology, Physics, or Computer Science?
It is not advisable to remove any of these subjects as they all play a crucial role in providing a well-rounded education. Each subject offers unique perspectives and skills that are valuable for students' academic and professional development. Instead of removing a subject, it would be more beneficial to ensure that all students have access to a diverse range of subjects and resources to support their learning in each area.

What is a settlement?
A settlement is a community or group of people who have established a place to live, work, and interact with one another. It can range from a small village to a large city, and can be located in rural or urban areas. Settlements typically include residential areas, commercial districts, and public spaces such as parks and schools. They are essential for human civilization as they provide a place for people to live, work, and socialize.

Physics or Chemistry or Biology?
It ultimately depends on personal interests and career goals. Physics deals with the study of matter, energy, and the fundamental forces of the universe. Chemistry focuses on the composition, structure, properties, and changes of matter. Biology is the study of living organisms and their interactions with each other and their environment. Each field offers unique perspectives and opportunities for exploration and discovery.

What is the settlement pattern?
A settlement pattern refers to the way in which human settlements are distributed across a particular area. It can be influenced by factors such as topography, resources, transportation networks, and cultural preferences. Settlement patterns can vary from dispersed, clustered, linear, or nucleated, depending on the geographical and social context of the area. Studying settlement patterns can provide insights into the historical development, social organization, and environmental impact of human communities.
-
What are settlement-hostile regions?
Settlement-hostile regions are areas that are difficult or unsuitable for human habitation due to various factors such as extreme weather conditions, lack of resources, or environmental hazards. These regions may have limited access to water, food, or shelter, making it challenging for people to live there long-term. Settlement-hostile regions can also be prone to natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, or wildfires, further increasing the risks associated with living in these areas.
-
How do settlement belts form?
Settlement belts form as a result of the clustering of human settlements along transportation routes, such as rivers, roads, or railways. These routes provide access to resources and markets, making them attractive locations for people to establish communities. Over time, the concentration of settlements along these routes creates a linear pattern of development, forming a settlement belt. This pattern is often reinforced by the presence of natural barriers or topographical features that limit the expansion of settlements in certain directions, further concentrating development along the transportation route.
-
What is the settlement behavior?
Settlement behavior refers to the actions and decisions made by individuals or groups to resolve a dispute or conflict. This can include negotiations, compromise, mediation, or legal proceedings. Settlement behavior is influenced by various factors such as the nature of the dispute, the parties involved, and the available resources. The goal of settlement behavior is to reach a mutually acceptable resolution and avoid prolonged conflict.
