Charlene M. Eska provides in this book an edition and translation for the first time of the legal glossary of the seventeenth-century Irish antiquarian Dubhaltach Mac Fhirbhisigh. Without his efforts as a collector, much of the medieval Irish legal corpus would have been lost. Dubhaltach compiled his glossary from a wide range of medieval sources, some of which are no longer extant. The glossary provides us not only with a wealth of new Irish legal vocabulary, but it also offers us a glimpse into these otherwise lost texts.

Charlene M. Eska, Ph.D. (2006), in Celtic Languages and Literatures, Harvard University, is a Professor in the Department of English at Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University. Her publications focus on medieval Irish legal texts and manuscripts, including Cáin Lánamna: An Old Irish Tract on Marriage and Divorce (Brill, 2010), A Raven’s Battle-Cry: The Limits of Judgment in the Medieval Irish Legal Tract Anfuigell (Brill, 2019), and Lost and Found in Early Irish Law: Aidbred, Heptad 64, and Muirbretha (Brill, 2022).
