The Origin and History of Irish Names of Places, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint) by P. W. Joyce Pdf

Excerpt from The Origin and History of Irish Names of Places, Vol. 1 Triallam cimcheall Na Foohla - Let us wander Round Ireland: So wrote the topographer, John O'Dugan, five hundred years ago, when beginning his poetical description of Ireland, and so I address my readers to-day. The journey will be at least a novel one; and to those who are interested in the topography of our country, in the origin of local names, or in the philosophy of language, it may be attended with some instruction and amusement. The materials of this book were collected, and the book itself was written, in the intervals of serious and absorbing duties.

The Origin and History of Irish Names of Places (Classic Reprint) by P. W. Joyce Pdf

Excerpt from The Origin and History of Irish Names of Places An addition of knowledge On Holy Ireland: - These were the first words of Gilla-na-Neeve O'Heeren, when he undertook to complete the description of Ireland, which his predecessor, John O'Dugan, had left unfinished; and they form a very suitable motto for the book 1 now offer to the notice of the public. For this book completes the work that was only half accomplished by the first series of "The Origin and History of Irish Names of Places." When I first took in hand to write a book on Irish Local Names, I thought I could grasp the whole subject in a single volume; and in the attempt to do so, I compressed as much matter into the First Series as any readable book of the size could conveniently hold.

The Origin and History of Irish Names of Places by Patrick Weston Joyce Pdf

"In a word, this is the landmark work on Irish place names and a boon to genealogists. In Volumes I and II Mr. Joyce set about classifying the circumstances that gave origin to Irish place names, to explain the phonetic laws under which these names were anglicized, and to illustrate those patterns by bringing in as many examples as possible. In this context the author discusses the Irish local name system, names of historical and legendary origin, names commemorating artificial structures (fortresses, churches, towns, roads, and so on), and names descriptive of physical features (mountains, islands, rivers, animals, and the like). Volume III incorporates the author's findings during the forty-year hiatus since Volume II and includes a dictionary of some 10,000 Irish place names, from Abartagh to Woteraghy, not included in the earlier books"--The publisher.

Irish Local Names Explained (Classic Reprint) by P. W. Joyce Pdf

Excerpt from Irish Local Names Explained I Have condensed into this little volume a considerable part of the local etymologies contained in "The Origin and History of Irish Names of Places." I have generally selected those names that are best known through the country, and I have thought it better to arrange them in alphabetical order. The book has been written in the hope that it may prove useful, and perhaps not uninteresting, to those who are anxious for information on the subject, but who have not the opportunity of perusing the larger volume. Soon after the appearance of "The Origin and History of Irish Names of Places," I received from correspondents in various parts of Ireland communications more or less valuable on the topography, legends, or antiquities of their respective localities. I take this opportunity of soliciting further information from those who are able to give it, and who are anxious to assist in the advancement of Irish literature.
