The School of Celtic Studies at DIAS is delighted to
announce that Dr. Chantal Kobel has been appointed a Bergin Fellow. The name of the Fellowship honours Professor
Osborn J. Bergin, first Director of the School of Celtic Studies, and one of
the outstanding Irish scholars of his generation.
Dr. Kobel’s research currently focuses on the codicology and
contents of the late medieval Irish law manuscripts held in Trinity College
Dublin Library. During her Fellowship, she will be preparing a monograph that
will provide detailed accounts of these codicologically and textually complex manuscripts,
and include a general study of medieval Irish lawyers’ books. She is also engaged
in preparing critical editions of a series of previously unpublished glossaries
containing legal citations preserved in the composite manuscript volume TCD MS
H 3.18 (1337).
After attaining her PhD in Early Irish in the Department of
Irish at Trinity College Dublin, Dr. Kobel won an O’Donovan Scholarship at DIAS’s
School of Celtic Studies in August 2017. Her research entailed the preparation
of editions of a number of brief medieval Irish texts containing obscure
vocabulary, as well as a study of their manuscript contexts.
Dr. Kobel has presented at various international conferences,
published in Celtica and Ériu, two leading journals in the field
of Celtic Studies, and is presently preparing a number of further publications
on her research findings. Apart from her
interests in medieval Irish language, literature and manuscript culture, Dr.
Kobel’s other research interests include archival traditions in Ireland and
archival description. She is a professionally active archivist and also teaches
palaeography at the Department of Early Irish, Maynooth University.
We congratulate her hugely on her appointment as a Bergin
Fellow!
