Fix this textDUBLIN, the capital of the Irish Republic, is essentially a creation of the
Fix this texteighteenth century, when buildings were planned and built magnificently,
Fix this textregardless of expense. One of the finest of these is Trinity College, familiarly
Fix this textknown as T.C.D., with its classical portico in the Corinthian style, founded in
Fix this text1591 by Queen Elizabeth, at the instance of Archdeacon Ussher, Archbishop
Fix this textLoftus and Luke Challoner. It has a provost, thirty-two fellows and seventy
Fix this textscholars on the foundation and the average number of students is about 1500.
Fix this textThe normal course of study lasts four years, and courses are available in
Fix this textthe arts, law, physics, science, divinity, engineering, agriculture, commerce
Fix this textand music.

Fix this textCodex Usserianus of the sixth century; the Book of Armagh, over a thousand
Fix this textyears old, and the greatest treasure of all —the famous Book of Kells, a
Fix this textmagnificently illuminated manuscript of the Gospels, justly described as “the
Fix this textmost beautiful book in the world.” It was designed by an unknown hand
Fix this textin the Monastery of Kells in Meath between 650-690, an indication of the
Fix this textpart played by Ireland in the Dark Ages.
Fix this textWhen Roman civilization was Being trampled to fragments throughout
Fix this textEurope, Ireland remained a custodian of knowledge. It has been said that
