Medieval Wales had a separate system of law to that found in English, and the law has been preserved in several medieval manuscripts. One aspect of the law manuscripts is the large collections of legal triads, basically sentences listing things in threes. This book examines the legal triads, an important part of medieval Welsh law.
The law manuscripts of medieval Wales not only explain the historically unique Welsh legal system, but they also stand as works of surprising literary merit. The Legal Triads of Medieval Wales is the first full-length study devoted to the exploration of the legal triadseducational and mnemonic sentences for almost every aspect of medieval Welsh law that collect things in groups of three. A must for any reader interested in the workings of medieval law, this volume offers a fully edited and translated text of the triads, as well as their literary and legal context.
