Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Journal of the Royal Society of Antiquaries of Ireland: Formerly the Royal Historical and Archæological Association of Ireland Mr. Mac Ritchie, under the title of "Notes on the word Sidh" has collected a mass of suggestive references bearing largely on fairy folk-lore, and the early cave-dwelling people, whose existence may have been the foundation for many legends. In early Church Architecture we have secured elaborate descriptions of St. Fintan´s Church, Howth, and that on Ireland´s Eye, from Mr. R. Cochrane, F.S.A. Though so near Dublin these curious buildings had never yet been adequately described or understood. Miss Margaret Stokes has written an interesting account of St. Beoc´s Church, Carn, Co. Wexford, and its legendary connexion with Brittany. Colonel Vigors reports on the early Church Remains at Ullard, Co. Kilkenny. The Cathedral of Killaloe is described by Mr. Westropp, with ground-plan and careful drawings of details. This is in continuation of a Paper in last volume, which included his drawings of the great romanesque door of the Cathedral. Rev. E. F. Hewson has furnished descriptions of Claragh and two other Churches near Kilkenny (p.207), which contain some points of special interest. In early Christian Art the Rev. Dr. Healy presents a Paper on "The Baptism of our Lord," as represented on Crosses at Kells and Monasterboice. Tracing, as it does, the sources from which the ancient workers in stone derived their artistic inspiration, this is one of the most interesting Papers in the volume. A short account of the "Garland of Howth," with facsimiles of two of the illuminated pages of this old manuscript of the Gospels, is embodied in the notice of the Church on Ireland´s Eye (p.404).
