Recholl Breth
''Recholl Breth'' (Old Irish for "Shroud of Judgements") is a legal text dealing with cases in which a legal fault is not immediately obvious. It touches on contract law, rightful kings, and marriage law. It is the 13th text in the ''Senchas Már''. Manuscripts and title There is a single complete copy of ''Recholl Breth'', contained in Dublin, Trinity College, MS 1433 alongside six other texts from the middle third of the ''Senchas Már''. Two other manuscripts (Trinity College MS 1336 and 1337) have extracts from it, with commentary. An edition, with translation, was included in the ''Ancient Laws of Ireland'' (Vol. 4, 1879). However, this was erroneously edited as if it were part of the text of '' Din Techtugud'', a preceding text in the ''Senchas Már'' dealing with land possession. As of 2019, Charlene Eska was preparing a new edition and translation of ''Recholl Breth''. The title ''Recholl Breth'' is found in various forms in the manuscript tradition (''Rechull'', ''Rac ...

Old Irish
Old Irish, also called Old Gaelic (, Ogham, Ogham script: ᚌᚑᚔᚇᚓᚂᚉ; ; ; or ), is the oldest form of the Goidelic languages, Goidelic/Gaelic language for which there are extensive written texts. It was used from 600 to 900. The main contemporary texts are dated 700–850; by 900 the language had already transitioned into early Middle Irish. Some Old Irish texts date from the 10th century, although these are presumably copies of texts written at an earlier time. Old Irish is forebear to Modern Irish, Manx language, Manx and Scottish Gaelic. Old Irish is known for having a particularly complex system of morphology (linguistics), morphology and especially of allomorphy (more or less unpredictable variations in stems and suffixes in differing circumstances), as well as a complex phonology, sound system involving grammatically significant Irish initial mutations, consonant mutations to the initial consonant of a word. Apparently,It is difficult to know for sure, giv ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Senchas Már
''Senchas Már'' (Old Irish for "Great Tradition") is the largest collection of early Irish legal texts, compiled into a single group sometime in the 8th century, though individual tracts vary in date. These tracts were almost certainly written by a variety of authors, though some suggest that certain authors wrote more than one of the included tracts. The collection was apparently made somewhere in the north midlands. The ''Senchas Már'' tracts have been subjected to the greatest amount of glossing and commentary in later manuscripts. Moreover, one of the few examples of Old Irish glossing has been given to the various texts of ''Senchas Már''. These glosses were apparently made in Munster. The text has been arranged into thirds; three was apparently an important number to the Irish. A number of laws were grouped into threes, called ''triads''—a practice also common in the Welsh. One scholar has recently suggested that there were a number of groups of six including one sing ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Library Of Trinity College Dublin
The Library of Trinity College Dublin () serves Trinity College, and is the largest library in Ireland. It is a legal deposit or "copyright library", which means that publishers in Ireland must deposit a copy of all their publications there without charge. It is the only Irish library to also hold such rights for works published in the United Kingdom. It is one of the most iconic and prominent landmarks of the university, and has housed the Book of Kells since 1661. The Library is also the permanent home to the Brian Boru harp, a national symbol of Ireland, as well as a copy of the 1916 Proclamation of the Irish Republic. One of the four volumes of the Book of Kells is on public display at any given time. The volumes and pages shown are regularly changed; a new display case installed in 2020 facilitated all pages to be displayed, including many which had not been seen in public for several decades. Members of the University of Dublin also have access to the libraries of Ta ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

O'Davoren's Glossary
O'Davoren's Glossary is an early modern glossary of Old Irish terms, many of which are legal in nature. The glossary is important for its well-preserved quotations from early Irish legal texts (which would otherwise have been lost or preserved only in corrupt form). The glossary is associated with the Mac Aodhagáin (McEgan) law school in Park, County Galway, Galway. Manuscripts and editions O'Davoren's Glossary survives in two independent and contemporary copies, British Library, MS Egerton 88 (given the siglum E) and Trinity College Dublin, MS 1317 (given siglum F). E is from the hand of Domhnall Ó Duibhdábhoirenn (O'Davoren) and is dated to 1564. The manuscript Egerton 88 is associated with O'Davorens, an obscure Irish legal family. F is from the hand of Dubhaltach Mór Mac Firbhisigh. Of the two manuscripts, F is the much worse preserved: the definitions under the letters A, B, and O are entirely missing; substantial portions are missing from other letters; and, in some sec ...

Heptads
The ''Sechtae'' (Old Irish for "Heptads") is a collection of sixty-five heptads (mnemonic lists of seven) on various subjects in early Irish law. It is among the longest and most wide-ranging sources for early Irish law. The ''Sechtae'' is the ninth text in the ''Senchas Már''. Manuscripts The ''Sechtae'' is only preserved in a complete form in one manuscript (Bodleian Library MS Rawlinson B 487), though Rudolf Thurneysen refers to the quality of this manuscript as "very poor". Portions of the ''Sechtae'' or quotes from it are preserved in several other manuscripts. In early Irish legal commentaries, the ''Sechtae'' is referred to as ("the sevens"). Contents The ''Sechtae'' is among the longest surviving texts of early Irish law. It is the ninth text of the collection of legal texts called the ''Senchas Már'', placed at the beginning of the middle third of that collection. The compilation of the ''Senchas Már'' is generally dated between the late 7th and early 8th centu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
