Bemerkung:

"Mystery surrounds the emergence of Insula latinity. How Insular scholars learnt Latin, what books they used, and how they in turn taught their own students are problems which have only recently begun to attract scholarly attention [...] This book examines the teaching of the most important subject in the Insular curriculum. Selected texts are analysed to provide an insight into the aims and methods of the early medieval teacher. Dr. Law's extensive research in the manuscript sources makes this book an indispensable companion to any investigation of early modern education" (Klappentext). - (= Studies in Celtic History). - In englischer Sprache. - Der Schutzumschlag angerändert; eine Ecke des Schutzumschlags beschnitten und mit Preisschildern. Sonst gutes, gepflegtes Exemplar.
