Buile Shuibhne
Buile Shuibhne (Irish pronunciation: , ''The Madness of Suibhne'' or ''Suibhne's Frenzy''; alternate spellings: Shuibni, Suibne) is the final installment of a three-text cycle in medieval Irish literature: Fled Dúin na nGéd (Feast of Dun na nGéd ), Cath Maige Rátha (Battle of Mag Rath ) and Buile Suibhne.
The first text details the events leading up to the Battle of Mag Rath, the second describes the carnage of the battle, and the third chronicles the life of Suibhne (Mad Sweeney) from the end of the war until his death.〔 Sailor, Susan Shaw. “Suibne Geilt: Puzzles, Problems, and Paradoxes” The Canadian Journal of Irish Studies. 24.1 (1998). ; http://search.credoreference.com.ezproxy.library.wisc.edu/content/entry/penguinmlc/mad_suibne〕 Suibhne’s name appears as early as the ninth century in a law tract, but Buile Suibhne did not take its current form until the twelfth century.〔http://search.credoreference.com.ezproxy.library.wisc.edu/content/entry/penguinmlc/mad_suibne〕
==Suibhne's identity==
The identity of Suibhne is a very convoluted matter as several texts mention different Suibnes in regards with the Battle of Mag Rath.〔http://search.credoreference.com.ezproxy.library.wisc.edu/content/entry/penguinmlc/mad_suibne〕 Buile Suibhne specifies Suibhne as the son of Colman Cuar and as the pagan king of Dál nAraidi in Ulster in Ireland (in particular in the areas of present day county Down and county Antrim).〔 Sailor, Susan Shaw. “Suibne Geilt: Puzzles, Problems, and Paradoxes” The Canadian Journal of Irish Studies. 24.1 (1998). ; http://search.credoreference.com.ezproxy.library.wisc.edu/content/entry/penguinmlc/mad_suibne〕 This particular Suibhne son of Colman’s name can also be found in the Annals of Tighenach and The Book of Lismore.〔Sailor, Susan Shaw. “Suibne Geilt: Puzzles, Problems, and Paradoxes” The Canadian Journal of Irish Studies. 24.1 (1998).〕 The Annals of Tighenach state Suibhne, son of Colman, died in the Battle of Mag Rath, making Buile seem a fanciful imagining of dead warrior. Historical records of Dál nAraidi do exist. It was a historical kingdom inhabited by a Pictish people.〔 MacNeill, Eoin. Phases of Irish History. Port Washington, N.Y.: Kennikat Press, 1919.〕 However the king lists of Dál nAraidi in the Book of Leinster fail to mention any Suibne son of Colman Cuar as king. J. G. O’Keefe has hypothesized a possible scenario where Suibhne might have been elected by the Pictish people to act as regent in the midst of King Congal Claen of Dál Araidi’s exile.
