Churches in early medieval Ireland

This is the first book devoted to churches in Ireland from the arrival of Christianity in the fifth century to the early stages of the Romanesque around 1100, including those built to house treasures of the golden age of Irish art such as the Book of Kells and the Ardagh chalice. The authors comprehensive survey of the surviving examples forms the basis for a far-reaching analysis of why those buildings looked as they did, and what they meant in the context of early Irish society.
