Handbuch des Alt-Irischen: Grammatik, Texte und Woerterbuch
Author: R. Thurneysen
Publisher: Heidelberg
Publication date: 1909
Number of pages: ca. 800

His Handbuch is still in print in English, entitled A Grammar of old Irish. I used to have it as a paper copy, which was quite expensive, but I don't remember how precisely it corresponds with this German edition.

I never succeeded in working completely through it. It has a reputation for being relatively intense and deservedly so.

With a few texts in the second pa ... Читать дальше »

The book does not presuppose prior knowledge of Irish and gives thorough coverage of the grammatical patterns of the language. Texts and exercises are presented in ... Читать дальше »
