This book focuses, from a legal perspective, on a series of events
which make up some of the principal episodes in the legal history
of religion in Ireland: the anti-Catholic penal laws of the late
seventeenth and early eighteenth century; the shift towards the
removal of disabilities from Catholics and dissenters; the
dis-establishment of the Church of Ireland; and the place of
religion, and the Catholic Church, under the Constitutions of 1922
and 1937.
This multi-disciplinary study considers the intersection between
law and family life in Ireland from the early nineteenth to the
mid-twentieth century. Setting the law in its wider social
historical context it traces marriage from its formation through to
its breakdown. It considers the impact of the law on such issues as
adultery, divorce, broken engagements, marriage settlements,
pregnancy, adoption, property, domestic violence, concealment of
birth and inter-family homicide, as well as the historical origins
of the Constitutional protection of the family. An underlying theme
is the way in which the law of the family in Ireland differed from
the law of the family in England.

Factorization algebras are local-to-global objects that play a role
in classical and quantum field theory that is similar to the role
of sheaves in geometry: they conveniently organize complicated
information. Their local structure encompasses examples like
associative and vertex algebras; in these examples, their global
structure encompasses Hochschild homology and conformal blocks. In
this second volume, the authors show how factorization algebras
arise from interacting field theories, both classical and quantum,
and how they encode essential information such as operator product
expansions, Noether currents, and anomalies. Along with a
systematic reworking of the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism via
derived geometry and factorization algebras, this book offers
concrete examples from physics, ranging from angular momentum and
Virasoro symmetries to a five-dimensional gauge theory.

this first volume, the authors develop the theory of factorization
algebras in depth, but with a focus upon examples exhibiting their
use in field theory, such as the recovery of a vertex algebra from
a chiral conformal field theory and a quantum group from Abelian
Chern-Simons theory. Expositions of the relevant background in
homological algebra, sheaves and functional analysis are also
included, thus making this book ideal for researchers and graduates
working at the interface between mathematics and physics.
