Thomas Charles-Edwards, the distinguished scholar of medieval Britain and Ireland, has made important contributions to a number of fields, but is particularly renowned for his studies in Celtic history and law. In this volume, colleagues pay tribute to his work with essays that range across the medieval Celtic world, medieval Wales, Ireland and Scotland. In the first part of the volume. They cover both historical aspects (and, as is fitting, often reflect the honoree's interest in archaeology and epigraphy), and the legal institutions and texts of medieval Ireland and Wales, with several informed by readings of their literature.
