Description
Churches in Early Medieval Ireland Deals with the churches in Ireland from the arrival of Christianity in the fifth century to the early stages of the Romanesque around 1100. The author argues that some of these monumental schemes were intended to recall distant sacred topographies, especially Jerusalem and Rome.
