Four Courts Press

Four Courts Press was founded in 1970 by Michael Adams as a small press. From 1992, Four Courts Press expanded rapidly from its theology base, first into Celtic and Medieval Studies and Ecclesiastical History, and then into Modern History, Art, Literature, and Law. The Press publishes some 40 titles a year. At present, there are over 1500 titles in print. Our books are available worldwide, either directly via our website or through an extensive chain of bookstores, libraries, and book wholesalers.

All our books are peer reviewed. More information concerning this policy is available directly from the Press.

Four Courts Press is based at 7 Malpas Street, near Dublin's historic Blackpitts area.
