Law, Literature and Society: CSANA Yearbook, Volume 7

The intimate relationship of the study of law and the study of literature has never been clearer in Celtic studies. They help to elucidate each other, as well as to contextualise the study of history and society. This is the approach adopted in the studies collected in this volume of CSANA.
