Woodbridge: The Boydell Press, 1996. Hardcover. Good. Hardcover. 9 1/2" X 6 1/4". 341pp. Mild rubbing, bumps, and shelf wear to covers, corners, and edges of brown cloth over boards. Creasing and a tear to edge of page 109/110. Pages are clean and unmarked. Binding is sound. ABOUT THIS BOOK: Works of early Irish authors include a strong biblical component, but indicate that independent thought is accepted. Scarcity of scientific data, a real interest in the physical world, and the need to validate the scriptures encouraged seventh-century Irish scholars toward critical reflection on scientific matters. Their world-view was based on materials drawn from the Bible, on earlier Christian works and on personal reflection and contemplation. This volume looks at the Irish contribution to the development of western thought in the early middle ages.(Publisher).
