[Rezension von: Law and religion in Ireland, 1700-1970]
Legal history, as a subdiscipline, serves two masters. On the one hand, it serves the goals and methods of history, and—with the priorities of prevailing historiographies—seeks to add to the body of knowledge of that discipline. On the other hand, legal history is often produced by and for lawyers (...
