Abstract

This essay provides an analysis of the various temporal frameworks employed in the debates surrounding the translation of the Brehon Law manuscripts. It is principally concerned with the writings of three key contributers to these debates: Sir Henry Maine, the British jurist and legal historian; Eoin MacNeill, the Irish nationalist historian and revolutionary; and James Connolly, the founder of the Irish Socialist Republican Party.
