Homage to W.J. Kinsella

The article recalls some notable Irish contributors to the modern revival and continuation of interest in Thomas More. It begins with a commemoration of William J. Kinsella, late president of the Thomas More Society of Ireland. It goes on to recall briefly the contributions of a number of distinguished Irish-born lawyers since the nineteenth century. All those students of More had one thing in common: they saw in him a man of special interest for modern times –as a witness to unchanging values in an age of change. The article gives particular notice to Richard O’Sullivan– for the range and depth of his legal learning, and his sense of the importance of More in the history of law
