About this product
Product Information
Excerpt from On the Manners and Customs of the Ancient Irish, Vol. 1: A Series of Lectures The chair of Archaeology and Irish History which O'Curry held in the Catholic University of Ireland, was established chiefly with a view of promoting historical investigation; and Dr. Newman, the first Rector, intended that all the lectures delivered by O'Curry should be published. One of his last, if not his very last, act as Rector, was to hand me a cheque for three hundred pounds, in order that the printing of the first series of Lectures, those "On the Manuscript Materials of Irish History," might be commenced. The intention of Dr. Newman was not lost sight of by the Catholic Bishops, nor by Dr. Newman's successor, the present Rector, Monsignor Woodlock For, besides giving a further sum for the completion of the first series of Lectures, they purchased, after the death of O'Curry, his glossaries and manuscripts. One object which the University had in purchasing O'Curry's manuscripts was, to obtain possession of the Lectures now published, with a view to having them printed. This series of lectures comprises several short courses which were delivered from time to time. According to the original design, it should have included at least three other courses - on the internal arrangements and furniture of houses, on food and drink, and on the burial of the dead. Owing to the sudden death of Professor O'Curry immediately after the completion of his Lectures on Music, the intended Lectures were not written, and I have not been able to discover any materials collected towards their preparation.
