Bibliography

As you gather the sources for your Wikipedia contribution, think about the following:

Is the source from a reliable publication?
- Reliable publications include established newspapers, academic journals and books, textbooks, and other published sources with reputations for accuracy and fact-checking.
- Unreliable sources include blog posts and other self-published works, press releases, and social media posts.
Is the source verifiable?
- In order for a source to be considered verifiable, other editors should be able to consult the source.
Is the source independent of the subject?
- Is the source connected in any way to the subject? This is especially important when writing biographies or about organizations.
- For example, if you were writing a biography, sources like the person's webpage or personal blog would not be considered independent.
Is the source primary or secondary?
- Primary sources include first-hand accounts, autobiographies, and other original content.
- Wikipedia allows limited use of primary sources, but typically only for straightforward, descriptive statements of facts, and only if they are published and verifiable without requiring specialized knowledge.
- Secondary sources should be the main basis for a biography on Wikipedia.
If you're working on a topic related to medicine or psychology, ensure that your sources follow these special guidelines.
If you're creating a new article, consider the following:
- Ensure that your topic meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines.
- In order for a topic to meet the notability requirement, you must be able to identify 2-3 sources that are reliable, verifiable, and independent of the subject you're writing about.
- Finding sufficient sources to establish notability can be especially hard when writing about people or organizations.
- Sources that are not independent of the subject might be useful additions, but don't count towards the notability requirement.
- Wikipedia has developed special guidelines for writing about living persons. Please follow these carefully.
- Wikipedia has a series of guidelines for writing about different categories of people, such as academics and artists. If you're trying to create a new entry about a living person, please look at these carefully.

If you're not sure whether a source is reliable, ask a librarian! If you have questions about Wikipedia's sourcing rules, you can use the Get Help button below to contact your Wikipedia Expert.

Bitel, Lisa. “Sex, Sin, and Celibacy in Early Christian Ireland.” Proceedings of the Harvard Celtic Colloquium 7 (1987): 65–95.^[1]
- This is a thesis paper discussing the connection between the mysticism of cats and the persecution of women. It covers the perception of heresy during the middle ages
Sharpes, Donald. "Outcasts and Heretics: Profiles in Independent Thought and Courage" Lexington Books (2007): 86^[2]
Barry, Jennifer. "Diagnosing Heresy: Ps.-Martyrius’s Funerary Speech for John Chrysostom." Journal of Early Christian Studies, vol. 24 no. 3, 2016, p. 395-418.^[3]
- Discusses the perception of Heresy being viewed as a disease or as proof of religious suffering.
Polonus, Martinus, "Chronicles" 1450^[4]
- He was the papal chaplain during during the 13th century and his chronicles covered many subjects regarding popes and other rulers. They were amended over the years and included a reference to Alice Kyteler
Barak, Katherine S. Spinsters, Old Maids, and Cat Ladies: A Case Study in Containment Strategies, Bowling Green State University, Ann Arbor, 2014.^[5]
- Established the relationship between the perception of cats as evil creatures and the persecution of women. Explained briefly how heresy was understood at the time and how cats and women were associated with heresy as a duo.
Curran, Robert. A Bewitched Land : Witches and Warlocks of Ireland, The O'Brien Press, 2012.^[6]
- First chapter was solely on Alice Kyteler. Contained useful information on how the stepchildren came to believe she was a witch and how they convince bishop Richard ledrede to head the persecution.
Neary, Anne. “The Origins and Character of the Kilkenny Witchcraft Case of 1324.” Proceedings of the Royal Irish Academy. Section C: Archaeology, Celtic Studies, History, Linguistics, Literature, vol. 83C, 1983, pp. 333–50^[7]
- Argues that the handling of Kyteler's case in Kilkenny mirrors how cases were handled in France. The author wrote Ledrede had participated in the similar trials in France, and so the way France handled heresy cases at the time was repeated in Ireland. Which means the outcome of the case more relied on Ledrede rather than beliefs within Ireland.
- Given, James Buchanan. "Society and Homicide in Thirteenth-Century England". Stanford University Press, 1977, pp. 96^[8]
  - Analyzed the flaws in the legal system in handling murder cases in England. Further established a higher tolerance of violence from nobles in the British Isles (Ireland, etc) by comparing the frequency of violent crimes within the Isles to crimes within England, as well as the conviction rate.
Cosgrove, Art. "Marriage in Medieval Ireland" History Ireland, Ireland's History Magazine. Medieval History (pre-1500), 1994^[9]
- Explains the expectations and rules within marriage and the church in Ireland during the middle ages. Establishes how a couple could separate legally.
Jones, Amelia, and Laura Cottingham. Sexual Politics: Judy Chicago's Dinner Party in Feminist Art History. , 1996. Print.^[10]
- This is an art piece that featured a reference to Petronilla de Meath as being one of the first alleged witches to be tried as a member of a coven. The piece recognizes some of her confessions in the trial as well as her demise by fire.
Williams, Bernadette. “The Sorcery Trial of Alice Kyteler.” History Ireland, vol. 2, no. 4, 1994, pp. 20–24^[11]
- Goes into detail on the specific charges brought against Kyteler
"Petronilla de Meath" Brooklyn Museum^[12]
- So this source is a little tricky because it claims its primary source is "A contemporary narrative of the proceedings against Dame Alice Kyteler, prosecuted for sorcery in 1324 / by Richard de Ledrede, bishop of Ossory" which is a massive document. I wanted to use the document but it is entirely in Latin and I could not find a full length English translation. But the article includes information on Petronilla's confessions and the case overall that are relevant to Alice's story.
