<p>In last of three episodes about early Irish writing, Tyler discusses the sources for Early Irish Law (a.k.a Breton law). He emphasises the importance of tradition, Christian influences, and the nature of manuscript culture in how these sources have come down to us. The law texts will serve as an important lens through which we can understand medieval Irish society.</p><p>Main topics addressed: manuscripts, Early Irish Law (Brehon Law)</p><p>Transcript: <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_S03Lgi2WFZZ6vWfQZtEI4hGjavHkeCc-GjBqbVRCSc/edit?usp=sharing" rel="nofollow">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_S03Lgi2WFZZ6vWfQZtEI4hGjavHkeCc-GjBqbVRCSc/edit?usp=sharing</a> </p><p><u>References and Suggested Media</u>:</p><p><span>Best, R.
