Celtic Law & Society: From Brehon Codes to Modern Identity is an in-depth exploration of one of the most sophisticated yet often misunderstood legal traditions of the ancient world.
This book examines how early Celtic societies structured justice around kinship, honour, and restitution rather than punishment, creating legal systems that were deeply embedded in community life. From the Irish Brehon laws to Welsh codification under Hywel Dda, and the fragmented traditions of Scotland, Brittany, and Gaul, it reveals a diverse yet interconnected legal landscape.
