Baile in Scáil

Von diesem wichtigen Texte, an dessen Entstehung sich manche Probleme knüpfen, enthält unser Kodex nur ein Bruchstück. Eine Ausgabe nach der Haupthandschrift in Rawlinson B. 512, fo. 101a-105b wäre sehr wünschenswert. Ich teile aus dieser hauptsächlich nur die zum Verständnis des ziemlich korrupten Harleyschen Textes dienenden Varianten mit. Das Bruchstück endet mit der Erwähnung Königs Fergal mac Móiledúin (709-718), während Rawl. noch 24 Könige aufzählt und mit dem fabelhaften Fland Cinach, tigfhlaith Hérenn (s. O'Curry, MS. Materials S. 401) endet. Für die irische Geschichte ist die Vision des Phantoms ein wichtiges Denkmal, indem sie mit ihrer Aufzählung von mehr als 50 Königen, den Angaben über ihre Regierungszeit und die Umstände ihres Todes, den Schlachtenlisten und anderen Einzelheiten eine unabhängige Quelle neben den AnnalenEin Citat aus Baile in Scáil findet sich in den Annalen der Vier Meister, A.D. 773. Flann Mainistrech bezieht sich auf die Scálbaile in seinem Gedichte über die Könige von Tara (LL 132a 48) bietet. O'Curry, (MS. Materials S. 385—389) ist der einzige, der bisher eingehender über unseren Text gehandelt hat.
