Publisher's Synopsis
""A Criticism of Dr. Atkinson's Glossary to Volumes 1-5 of the Ancient Laws of Ireland"" is a book written by Whitley Stokes in 1903. The book is a critique of the glossary written by Dr. Robert Atkinson, which accompanied the publication of the Ancient Laws of Ireland. Stokes argues that Atkinson's glossary is incomplete and inaccurate, and that it fails to provide a comprehensive understanding of the ancient Irish legal system. Stokes offers his own interpretations and translations of the legal texts, drawing on his extensive knowledge of Irish language and culture. The book is an important contribution to the field of Irish legal history, and is still widely cited and studied today. It is recommended for scholars and students of Irish history, law, and language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
