Four Courts Press is an independent Irish academic publishing house, with its office at Malpas Street, Dublin 8, Ireland. [4]

Founded in 1970 by Michael Adams, who died in February 2009, [5] its early publications were primarily theological, notably the English translation of the Navarre Bible. [5] From 1992, it expanded into publishing peer-reviewed works in Celtic Studies, Medieval Studies and Ecclesiastical History, and then into modern history, art, literature and law. [3] As of late 2024, Four Courts Press had around 800 titles in print and published around 35 new works each year. [6]
