Cultural depictions of Malcolm II of Scotland : ウィキペディア英語版 | Cultural depictions of Malcolm II of Scotland Malcolm II of Scotland has been depicted in historical fiction. *Malcolm is a relatively minor character in the animated television series ''Gargoyles'', depicted in a single episode. He is depicted as Prince Maol Chalvim, trying to warn his father Kenneth II of Scotland about the ambitions of Constantine III. He fails to prevent the murder of his father but manages to escape himself. He is later depicted in three issues of the ''Gargoyles'' comic book series. Set in 997, the issues depict Malcolm and his allies, Kenneth III and Findláech of Moray, successfully deposing Constantine III. 〔.〕 *The historical novel ''Pride of Lions'' (1996) by Morgan Llywelyn, depicts Malcolm II married to Blanaid. Blanaid herself depicted as a daughter of Brian Boru. 〔(John T. Strunk, Clan Macbeth )〕 The novel used as fact a theory mentioned in a non-fiction book, ''Brian Boru, King of Ireland'' (1982) by Roger Chatterton-Newman. That Malcolm II was a son-in-law and ally to Brian Boru. However, Chatterton-Newman failed to note his own sources on the subject, and genealogist Stewart Baldwin has doubted the plausibility of the connection. 〔(Baldwin, Stewart, Brian Boruma and Malcolm of Scotland (1998) )〕 The main plot of the novel features a conflict between Donnchad mac Briain and his half-brother Tadc mac Briain over the throne of Munster. Donnchad and his mother Gormflaith ingen Murchada travel by sea to Scotland, seeking the aid of Donnchad's brother-in-law Malcolm II. The old woman manages to settle the alliance. 〔(Kirkus Reviews (1996) )〕 *The historical novel ''Macbeth: An Historical Novel of the Last Celtic King'' (2011) by Robert Harrison, opens with the victory of Malcolm II over his predecessor Kenneth III of Scotland. "''Malcolm stood above the wounded King, sword upraised. No words were spoken, for they both knew the penalty of defeat. The blade whistled in its swiftness, and the bloody head of Kenneth rolled in the mud.''"〔Harrison (2011),Macbeth: An Historical Novel of the Last Celtic King, p. 1〕 ==References==
