Aislinge Meic Conglinne = the Vision of Macconglinne : a Middle-Irish
VIRION KVNO MEYER Kí^-lo AISLINGE MEIC CONGLINNE THE VISION OF MacCONGLINNE A MIDDLE-IRISH WONDER TALE WITH A TEAXSLATIOy (BASED ON W. M. HEXNESSY'S), XOTES, AND A GLOSSARY BY KUNO MEYER ^VITH AX INTRODUCTION BY WILHELM WOLLNER LONDON DAVID NUTT, 270-271, STRAND 1892 ) (Riijhts of trandation and reprodurtion reserved. WHITLEY STOKES. CONTENTS. PREFACE. The famous Irish tale known as "The Vision of Mac- Conglinne" is now for the first time printed in the different versions which have come down to us. The longer of these versions, to which, on account of its literary merits, I have assigned the chief place, is taken from the huge vellum codex known as the Leahhar Breac, or Speckled Book, now preserved in the Royal Irish Academy, Dublin, by which it was published in fac- simile in 1876. This MS. was compiled from various sources in the fourteenth century. It is noteworthy that, with the exception of the Vision and a version of the mediteval legend of Alexander, the contents of this MS. are almost wholly ecclesiastical and religious. The second shorter version, printed infra, pp. 114-129, and translated on pp. 148-155, is taken from a paper MS. of the end of the sixteenth century, preserved in the library of Trinity College, Dublin, where it is classed H. 3. 18 (pp. 732-742). In printing the text, I have added a punctuation of my own. I have separated words according to the method followed by Windisch and Stokes. I have ex- tended contractions, using italics in all cases where there could be the smallest doubt as to the correctness of such extensions.

ON LEBOR GABALA. I. the Text
ON LEBOR GABALA. I. The text. § 1. The manuscripts. The text commonly known as Lebor Gabala or the Book of Invasions, has come down to us in several MSS. which, apart from the Latin relation given by Nennius in his Historia Brittomim, all belong either to the Middle-Irish or the Early Modern-Irish period. The various MSS. may be reduced to four versions, the mutual relations of which I shall endeavour to establish. The versions will be distinguished as follows: A. Book of Leinster (LL) fol. la—26b; Book of Fermoy (F), p. 1 —16; B. Royal Irish Academy DVI (S)1); Royal Irish Academy DIV1 (S)1); Rawlinson B 512 (R), fol. 76 Av— 97v; Book of Lecan (Lee I), fol. 10r—22v; Royal Irish Academy DIV3 (s); C. Book of Ballymote (LB), p. 15a—51 a; Book of Lecan (Lee H), fol. 264r—302v; D. OOlery version. One copy is in the possession of Pro- fessor Kuno Meyer2), while the R.I. A. has two other MSS. in the handwriting of O'Clerys. *) See p. 99 for my reason for indicating these two MSS. by the same character. 2) I wish to express here my sincere thanks to Professor Meyer not only for the loan of this important MS., but also formany valuable hints and suggestions as well as for the general interest he has taken in my work.

Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Ph.D. School of Humanities College of Arts University of Glasgow August 2014 Abstract Much concerning the disease termed leprosy is accepted as received knowledge, without thought to time and place, but there were many differences in how leprosy sufferers were treated across regions and eras, and so diversity should be regarded as normal. This thesis will examine what was meant by the term leprosy during primarily the medieval period between the sixth and fifteenth centuries in Ireland in order to see if this equates with the disease called Hansen’s Disease in the twenty-first century.

In large numbers, they can be found in many 0 other countries of the world, mostly the United States of America. The Irish have a long history. Originally a specific Celtic people with a distinctive culture, for many centuries they were exposed to the cultures of numerous invaders, for many centuries they suffered oppression--most painfully under the English overrule. As Professor Falaky Nagy comments, the Irish are ”a people who, for centuries, have been told that their language, their culture, and their religion were worthless and that they should try to be more like the English” [Tay].

Order of Celtic Wolves Lesson 6
ORDER OF CELTIC WOLVES LESSON 6 Introduction Welcome to the sixth lesson. What a fantastic achievement making it so far. If you are enjoying the lessons let like-minded friends know. In this lesson, we are looking at the diet, clothing, and appearance of the Celts. We are also going to look at the complex social structure of the wolves and dispel some common notions about Alpha, Beta and Omega wolves. In the Bards section we look at the tales associated with Lugh. We will look at the role of Vates as healers, the herbal medicinal gardens and some ancient remedies that still work today. Finally, we finish the lesson with an overview of the Brehon Law of the Druids. I hope that there is something in the lesson that appeals to you. Sometimes head knowledge is great for General Knowledge quizzes, but the best way to learn is to get involved. Try some of the ancient remedies, eat some of the recipes, draw principles from the social structure of wolves and Brehon law and you may even want to dress and wear your hair like a Celt. Blessings to you all. Filtiarn Celts The Celtic Diet Athenaeus was an ethnic Greek and seems to have been a native of Naucrautis, Egypt. Although the dates of his birth and death have been lost, he seems to have been active in the late second and early third centuries of the common era. His surviving work The Deipnosophists (Dinner-table Philosophers) is a fifteen-volume text focusing on dining customs and surrounding rituals.

The Cath Maige Tuired and the Vǫluspá
Connections: the Cath Maige Tuired and the Vǫluspá Convergence of cultures, history and myth Angelina Kjerstad Johansen Master's Thesis History of Religion UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Autumn 2015 1 Copyright Angelina Kjerstad Johansen 2015 Connections: the Cath Maige Tuired and the Vǫluspá – Convergence of cultures, history and myth Angelina Kjerstad Johansen http://www.duo.uio.no Trykk: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo 2 3 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor, Jens Braarvig, for having the patience to deal with me and my strange ways of doing things. Thank you to Jan Erik Rekdal and Karl Johansson for giving me the idea for this thesis and to my fellow students for great discussions. To all my friends and my amazing family, you know who you are, I love you more and more each day. And to the artists and musicians that make my life bearable, you do not know who you are, but without you I would truly go insane. A special thanks goes to my sister, Monica, for being my co-conspirator and for helping me bore every other member of our family with our academic discussions. May we continue to do so in the future! To Rita, whom I miss beyond words. I dedicate all my triumphs to you 4 5 Introduction The topic of the thesis is the Irish myth Cath Maige Tuired - "The Second Battle of Mag Tuired", which is the story about the battle between the Túatha Dé Danann, the gods of pagan Ireland, and their enemies the Fomoire. What I wish to focus upon in the Cath Maige Tuired is not the battle in itself, which has been compared to the war between the Aesir and the Vanir in Scandinavian mythology1, but a passage at the end of this myth, where the goddess Mórrigan (here in the form of a mortal) comes with a prediction of the end of the world.

Heaney -- Za Dziewiata Fala.Indd
MARIE HEANEY ZA DZIEWIĄTĄ FALĄ KSIĘGA LEGEND IRLANDZKICH Przełożył Mieczysław Godyń WYDAWNICTWO ZNAK KRAKÓW 2014 TUATHA DE DANaAN Dawno, dawno temu do Irlandii przybyli na licznych okrętach Tu- atha De Danaan, aby objąć wposiadanie kraj zamieszkany przez plemię Fir Bolg. Przybysze wywodzili swój ród od bogini Danu, aich uczeni mężowie posiadali ogromną moc iczczono ich na rów- ni zbogami. Byli biegli we wszelkich sztukach znanych druidom, takich jak magia, wieszczenie iwiedza tajemna. Umiejętności swe zdobyli wFalias, Gorias, Findias iMurias, czterech wielkich mia- stach północnych wysp. Gdy dopłynęli do Irlandii iwylądowali na zachodnim wybrzeżu, podpalili swe łodzie, aby nikogo znich nie kusiła myśl oodwrocie. Dym zpłonących łodzi przesłonił słońce izasnuł gęstym tumanem ziemię na trzy dni, toteż Fir Bolgowie sądzili, że Tuatha De Dana- an przybyli spowici wczarodziejską mgłę. Najeźdźcy przywieźli zsobą cztery największe skarby plemienne. ZFalias wzięli Lia Fail, czyli Głaz Przeznaczenia. Przenieśli go po- tem do Tary, agłaz krzyczał ludzkim głosem, ilekroć zasiadł na nim prawowity król Irlandii. ZGorias zabrali włócznię Lugha. Ten, kto ją dzierżył wręku, był niepokonany wwalce. ZFindias pochodził nieodparty miecz Nuady. Nikt nie mógł ujść jego ciosu, gdy dobyto go zpochwy. ZMurias przywieźli kocioł Dagdy. Nikt nie odchodził odeń głodny. 15 MARIE HEANEY Nuada był królem Tuatha De Danaan ito on powiódł ich prze- ciwko Fir Bolgom. Starli się wokrutnym boju na równinie Moytura. Była to pierwsza zbitew, które Tuatha De Danaan stoczyli wmiej- scu otej nazwie. Tysiące Fir Bolgów poległo– razem sto tysięcy– awśród nich władca plemienia, Eochai Mac Erc. Oddało także życie wielu synów bogini Danu, ich król zaś, Nuada, postradał wwalce rękę, odrąbaną aż po ramię.

Espelhos Distorcidos: O Romance at Swim- Two-Birds De Flann O'brien E a Tradição Literária Irlandesa
Universidade de Brasília Instituto de Letras Departamento de Teoria Literária e Literaturas Paweł Hejmanowski Espelhos Distorcidos: o Romance At Swim- Two-Birds de Flann O'Brien e a Tradição Literária Irlandesa Tese apresentada ao Programa de Pós-Graduação em Literatura para obtenção do título de Doutor, elaborada sob orientação da Profa. Dra. Cristina Stevens. Brasília 2011 IN MEMORIAM PROFESSOR ANDRZEJ KOPCEWICZ 2 Agradeço a minha colega Professora Doutora Cristina Stevens. A conclusão do presente estudo não teria sido possível sem sua gentileza e generosidade. 3 RESUMO Esta tese tem como objeto de análise o romance At Swim-Two-Birds (1939) do escritor irlandês Flann O’Brien (1911-1966). O romance pode ser visto, na perspectiva de hoje, como uma das primeiras tentativas de se implementar a poética de ficção autoconsciente e metaficção na literatura ocidental. Publicado na véspera da 2ª Guerra, o livro caiu no esquecimento até ser re-editado em 1960. A partir dessa data, At Swim-Two-Birds foi adquirindo uma reputação cult entre leitores e despertando o interesse crítico. Ao lançar mão do conceito mise en abyme de André Gide, o presente estudo procura mapear os textos dos quais At Swim-Two-Birds se apropria para refletí-los de forma distorcida dentro de sua própria narrativa. Estes textos vão desde narrativas míticas e históricas, passam pela poesia medieval e vão até os meados do século XX. Palavras-chave: Intertextualidade, Mis en abyme, Literatura e História, Romance Irlandês do séc. XX, Flann O’Brien. ABSTRACT The present thesis analyzes At Swim-Two-Birds, the first novel of the Irish author Flann O´Brien (1911-1966).
