Abstract

Regardless of these few critical comments, this marvellous study is a model of accuracy. Its detail (over 1,000 examples) forms a solid and inspiring base for future investigations. It is a treasure of information diligently compiled and nicely arranged by a true expert in MIr philology. This book is also highly important for neighbouring fields.
