This is a standard guide to Irish names, with some historical examples of people who used them. At one time, it was a standard authority for SCA name heralds, but later it was devalued because not all its name entries include dated medieval historical examples. For people interested in Irish names who are not bound by SCA rules, it is still useful. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Irish Names contains just under a thousand names selected from the enourmous wealth of historical sources - annals, genealogies, myth, legend and epic poetry - that make up the literature of early medieval Ireland. Of the the extraordinary variety of names available to the early Irish - some twelve thousand are recorded - only a handful are in current use. This classic work of reference explains the background and meaning of these names, and provides a fascinating insight into the society in which they had their origin. 'This splendid work encapsulates Irish history.' - The Irish Times Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
