MEDIAEVAL AND MODERN IRISH
SERIES
In order to further the study of Irish literature the
Department of Finance has made a special grant to
provide for the re-publication of mediaeval and
modern texts in a form suitable for class work and
for the general reader. At the instance of the Minister
for Finance an editorial committee has been formed
to direct the work. The members of the committee
are : Dr. E. J. Gwynn, Provost of Trinity, Miss
Knott, Dr. Bergin, Dr. Best, Professor O'Toole, Mr.
Delargy, Dr. Dillon.
It is hoped to supj)h^ editions of stories from the
Ulster, Fenian and mythological cycles, and of what
is best in Irish poetry and prose.
In the matter of editing, uniformity has not
been attempted, the different editors being free to
adopt the system which they prefer, subject to the
apjH-oval of the committee. The price of the volumes
will not be uniform, as they will vary in size, but it
will be kept as low as possible.
