Publisher's Synopsis

Cormac's Glossary is a book written by Cormac, a bishop and scholar from Ireland in the 9th century. The book is a collection of definitions and explanations of words and concepts from the Irish language, particularly those used in literature and poetry. The glossary covers a wide range of topics, including mythology, history, law, and religion. The book was originally written in Old Irish, but has been translated into English and other languages. It is considered an important source for understanding the language and culture of early medieval Ireland. The 1868 edition of the book was edited and translated by John O'Donovan, a prominent Irish scholar and historian.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
