This volume celebrates the work of William O'Sullivan, the first
keeper of manuscripts at Trinity College, Dublin, who preserved,
made more accessible and elucidated the documents in his care. The
manuscripts throw new light on the society of Ireland, the place of
the learned and literate in that world, and its relations with
Britain, Europe and America. Some of these essays clarify technical
problems in the making of famous manuscripts, and bring out for the
first time their indebtedness to or influence over other
manuscripts. Others provide unexpected new information about the
reigns of Edward I and James I, Irish provincial society, the
process and progress of religious change and the links between
settlements in Ireland and North American colonization.
