Book Synopsis Law and the Emergence of Modern Dublin by : W. N. Osborough
Download or read book Law and the Emergence of Modern Dublin written by W. N. Osborough and published by Irish Legal History. This book was released on 1996 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to reconstruct part of Dublin's past from source material of an unconventional and unfamiliar sort: accounts Of lawsuits generated by the evolving fortunes of the city and surrounding district. To enable the significance of these lawsuits to be better understood and to lend coherence to the narrative as a whole, additional explanatory material has been incorporated, drawn principally from general and specialist local histories. But the choice of focus has been dictated by the presence of an inventory of lawsuits with a topographical bias. In his preface, Professor Osborough remarks that he is unaware of the existence of any equivalent published exercise carried out for any other large city. The contents include: introducing litigation topography; defining Dublin; the physical setting; the river, port and bay; re-naming Sackville street; landmark buildings; public utilities; recreation for Dubliners; burying Dubliners; assessment. Complete with a detailed index and tables of cases and statutes, this volume is enhanced by over 100 illustrations in black and white.
Book Synopsis Law and Revolution in Seventeenth-century Ireland by : Coleman A. Dennehy
Download or read book Law and Revolution in Seventeenth-century Ireland written by Coleman A. Dennehy and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 1641, violence erupted in mid-Ulster that spread throughout the whole kingdom and lasted for more than a decade. The war was neither unpredictable nor was it out of step with the rest of the Stuart kingdoms, or indeed Europe generally. As with all wars, particularly the multi-national and multi-denominational, the Irish wars of the 1640s and 1650s had many complex and interrelated causes. Law, the legal system and the legal community played a vital role in the origins and the development of the conflict in Ireland that took it from a dependent kingdom to becoming part of a republican commonwealth. Lawyers also played a fundamental part in the return of the legal and political "normality" in the 1660s. This collection of essays considers how the law was part of this process and to what extent it was shaped by the revolutionary developments of the period. These essays arise from a conference held in 2014 in the House of Lords at the Bank of Ireland, Dublin, under the auspices of the Irish Legal History Society.
Book Synopsis The Lost Laws of Ireland by : Catherine Duggan
Download or read book The Lost Laws of Ireland written by Catherine Duggan and published by . This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient laws of Celtic Ireland were used from the time before Patrick until the 17th century when they were outlawed and disappeared. Crafted by judges, known as Brehons, the laws were surprisingly modern in their approach to timeless issues and reflect a complex and sophisticated society. This book gives an outline of the main features of the laws and their history, and ultimately focuses on certain themes that are significant to the modern reader, such as equity and fairness, transparent legal process and women's rights. Many of the legal manuscripts have been lost or destroyed and the laws were not translated into English until modern times. As a result, they have mostly remained obscure and unstudied. Only recently have they given up their secrets. The ancient laws provide a window into society in early Ireland where learning was revered, social mobility was expected and fairness and harmony were social goals. Their resilience demonstrates their value and effectiveness. The Brehon legal system came to an end officially in 1605 after enduring for over a thousand years.
Book Synopsis The Law School of University College Dublin by : W. N. Osborough
Download or read book The Law School of University College Dublin written by W. N. Osborough and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Law School of University College Dublin (UCD) has been a key center of legal education and research since its establishment as the Faculty of Law in 1909. The staff, students, and alumni of the school have contributed extensively to the political, economic, and cultural life of Ireland and beyond. In this book, Professor W.N. Osborough, a former Dean of Law at UCD, investigates the internal history of the school, ranging between its origins and survival as a distinct unit, staffing and educational programs, student and faculty life, the governance and decision making structures, its physical environment, the law library, and the relationship of the school to the university and the wider world. Focusing on the period up to the early 2000s, Professor Osborough enhances an understanding of the challenges of legal education and research, and how they have been overcome so as to sustain and develop the position of the law school as an internationally recognized center of excellence. The book includes biographies of prominent members of the law faculty alongside features on students of the school, including Kevin O'Higgins, John J. Webb, and Brian MacKenna in the early 20th century; Fernand E.J. Justice, Belgian diplomat and the first student to receive a PhD in the school of law; and future Chief Justices Thomas O'Higgins and Thomas Finlay.

Download or read book Dublin, 1930-1950 written by Joseph Brady and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1930s and 1940s, Dublin took on the characteristics of today's city. Decisions taken about the location of large-scale social housing programmes, a lack of reform of urban governance and mixed messages in relation to urban planning combined to produce the social patterns of the city that are recognizable today. The city began to deal with the motor car as a friend to be accommodated with some interesting and long-term results. These and other issues are explored in this latest volume in the 'Making of Dublin' series. The volume aims to convey a sense of what it was like to live in and to use the city during these two decades. Particular attention is devoted to looking at the impact of the Emergency and on how the city functioned, particularly as a shopping centre and tourism centre.
Book Synopsis Law and Religion in Ireland, 1700-1970 by : Kevin Costello
Download or read book Law and Religion in Ireland, 1700-1970 written by Kevin Costello and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-29 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses, from a legal perspective, on a series of events which make up some of the principal episodes in the legal history of religion in Ireland: the anti-Catholic penal laws of the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century; the shift towards the removal of disabilities from Catholics and dissenters; the dis-establishment of the Church of Ireland; and the place of religion, and the Catholic Church, under the Constitutions of 1922 and 1937.
Book Synopsis The Laws and Other Legalities of Ireland, 1689-1850 by : Seán Patrick Donlan
Download or read book The Laws and Other Legalities of Ireland, 1689-1850 written by Seán Patrick Donlan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Irish historical writing has long been in thrall to the perceived sectarian character of the legal system, this collection is the first to concentrate attention on the actual relationship that existed between the Irish population and the state under which they lived from the War of the Two Kings (1689-1691) to the Great Famine (1845-1849). Particular attention is paid to an understanding of the legal character of the state and the reach of the rule of law, with contributors addressing such themes as: how law was made and put into effect; how ordinary people experienced the law and social regulations; how Catholics related to the legal institutions of the Protestant confessional state; and how popular notions of legitimacy were developed. These themes contribute to a wider understanding of the nature of the state in the long eighteenth century and will therefore help to situate the study of Irish society into the mainstream of English and European social history.

Book Synopsis Law and the Idea of Liberty in Ireland from Magna Carta to the Present by : Peter Crooks
Download or read book Law and the Idea of Liberty in Ireland from Magna Carta to the Present written by Peter Crooks and published by . This book was released on 2022-12-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magna Carta is among the most famous documents in the history of the world, credited with being the first effective check in writing on arbitrary, oppressive and unjust rule - in a word, on tyranny. The fame of Magna Carta spread as England, and later Britain, came to girdle the globe in its power. This volume is the first to examine the importance of Ireland in the story of Magna Carta's dissemination. Four centuries before Magna Carta crossed the Atlantic, it had already been implanted across the Irish Sea. A version of the charter, issued in November 1216 in the name of the boy-king Henry III, was sent to Ireland, where it became fundamental to the English common law tradition in Ireland that survives to the present. This volume - the proceedings of a conference marking the 800th anniversary of the transmission of Magna Carta to Ireland - explores the paradoxes presented by the reception of Magna Carta into Irish law, above all the contested idea of ? ? ? ? liberty' that developed in Ireland. Contributors examine the legal, political and polemical uses to which Magna Carta was put from the thirteenth century onwards, as well as its twentieth- and twentieth-first century invocations as a living presence in contemporary Irish law. The volume also includes a new edition and translation of the Magna Carta Hibernie ('The Great Charter of Ireland') - an adaptation of the 1216 issue of Magna Carta found in the Red Book of the Irish Exchequer, which was destroyed in 1922. Subjects: Irish History; Legal History; Magna Carta; Medieval History].

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This multi-disciplinary study considers the intersection between law and family life in Ireland from the early nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century. Setting the law in its wider social historical context it traces marriage from its formation through to its breakdown. It considers the impact of the law on such issues as adultery, divorce, broken engagements, marriage settlements, pregnancy, adoption, property, domestic violence, concealment of birth and inter-family homicide, as well as the historical origins of the Constitutional protection of the family. An underlying theme is the way in which the law of the family in Ireland differed from the law of the family in England.
