Beskrivelse
The Old Irish Glosses at Wurzburg and Carlsruhe: Part 1, The Glosses and Translation is a book written by Whitley Stokes and published in 1887. The book is an exploration of the Old Irish Glosses found in manuscripts at the Wurzburg and Carlsruhe libraries in Germany. The glosses are annotations written in the margins of Latin texts and are considered to be some of the earliest examples of written Irish language. Stokes provides a detailed analysis of the glosses, including their linguistic and historical significance. He also includes translations of the glosses into English, providing readers with a better understanding of their content. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of the glosses. Stokes begins by providing an overview of the manuscripts and their history, before delving into the glosses themselves. He examines the language used in the glosses, as well as their relationship to other early Irish texts. Overall, The Old Irish Glosses at Wurzburg and Carlsruhe: Part 1, The Glosses and Translation is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and development of the Irish language. It provides a comprehensive analysis of some of the earliest examples of written Irish, and sheds light on the linguistic and cultural context in which they were produced.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
