Law School has been such a success in
terms of bringing together lawyers and
other professionals to discuss topics of
interest. It is from this discussion, in the
tradition of the old law schools, that
progress will be made in developing our
legal structures.
It is little recognised how developed our
legal system was in Medieval Ireland.
The lawyer played a very important role
and was a prominent participant in the
social life of the period. This tradition
continues today and is something we can
be proud of. Perhaps we forget the
contribution we have made and are
making to society.
We owe a great deal of our knowledge
of this period to the work of Professor
Daniel Binchy, a compiler of "The
Corpus Iuris Hibernici". His
descendants are well known solicitors
practising today. Others now carry on
his valuable research.
The Burren Law School 1996 is devoted
to the theme of "The Child in Irish Law"
and will take place from 19 to 21 April
1996 at The Burren College, Newtown-
castle, Ballyvaughan, Co. Clare.
For further information about our
project, contact Brian Sheridan, at 01 -
269 2126. For further reading the text
"A Guide to Irish Law" by Prof. Fergus
Kelly is recommended.
