Indeed, if it were not for one comparatively late manu- script now preserved outside Ireland, in the Advocates' Library, Edinburgh, we should have to rely for our knowledge of most of these stories almost entirely on Keating's History of Ireland. Under these circumstances it has seemed to me that I could hardly render a better service to Irish studies than to preserve these stories, by transcribing and publishing them, from the accidents and the natural decay to which they are exposed as long as they exist in a single manuscript copy only.

  • Stories from Early Irish History
    1 ^EUNIVERJ//, ^:IOS- =s & oo 30 r>ETRr>p'S LAMENT. A Land of Heroes Stories from Early Irish History BY W. LORCAN O'BYRNE WITH SIX ILLUSTRATIONS BY JOHN E. BACON BLACKIE AND SON LIMITED LONDON GLASGOW AND DUBLIN n.-a INTEODUCTION. Who the authors of these Tales were is unknown. It is generally accepted that what we now possess is the growth of family or tribal histories, which, from being transmitted down, from generation to generation, give us fair accounts of actual events. The Tales that are here given are only a few out of very many hundreds embedded in the vast quantity of Old Gaelic manuscripts hidden away in the libraries of nearly all the countries of Europe, as well as those that are treasured in the Royal Irish Academy and Trinity College, Dublin. An idea of the extent of these manuscripts may be gained by the statement of one, who perhaps had the fullest knowledge of them the late Professor O'Curry, in which he says that the portion of them (so far as they have been examined) relating to His- torical Tales would extend to upwards of 4000 pages of large size. This great mass is nearly all untrans- lated, but all the Tales that are given in this volume have already appeared in English, either in The Publications of the Society for the Preservation of the Irish Language] the poetical versions of The IV A LAND OF HEROES.

  • Aislinge Meic Conglinne = the Vision of Macconglinne : a Middle-Irish

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.

Daruwala: Yeats and the Mask of Deirdre: "That love is all we need" Yeats and the Mask ofDeirdre: "That love is all we need II By MANECK H. DARUWALA The poet finds and makes his mask in disappointment, the hero in defeat. The desire that can be satisfied is not a great desire. (Yeats) Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask and he will tell you the truth. (Wilde) EIRDRE, written during a very painful period of Yeats's life, is a civilized D form of autobiography. What could not be put down in journals or lyric poetry and could not be ignored becomes drama. Yeats turns here from the mirror to the mask. "The poet finds and makes his mask in disappointment, the hero in defeat" ("Anima Hominis," Mythologies, 334, 337), may apply equally to Yeats and Naoise. As Yeats says, there is always a phantasmago­ ria. Here the phantasmagoria includes Celtic myth, politics, chess games, and the literary tradition (or intertextuality-which, like a Greek mask, combines the advantages of resonance with those of disguise).

  • The Wooing of Emer and Other Stories
    The Ulster Cycle: The Wooing of Emer and other stories by Patrick Brown The fullest version of The Wooing of Emer is found in the Book of Leinster (c.1160) in a text dating from the tenth or eleventh century. An earlier, fragmentary version is found in several manuscripts, including Lebor na hUidre (the Book of the Dun Cow, c.1106). This retelling is based on both versions. Cú Chulainn’s Shield is an anecdote found in the manuscript H.3.17. This is my own translation, with thanks to Breandán Dalton, Dennis King, and especially David Stifter for their help and suggestions. The Death of Aífe’s Only Son is found in the Yellow Book of Lecan, compiled about 1390, but the language of the story dates from the ninth or tenth century. The Death of Derbforgaill is found in the Book of Leinster. The Elopement of Emer comes from the late 14th Century Stowe MS No 992. The Training of Cú Chulainn is a late, alternative version of Cú Chulainn’s travels and training. It is found in no less than eleven different manuscripts, the earliest being Egerton 106, dated to 1715. The Ulster Cycle: The Wooing of Emer and other stories © Patrick Brown 2002/2008 The Wooing of Emer A great and famous king, Conchobor son of Fachtna Fathach, once ruled in Emain Macha, and his reign was one of peace and prosperity and abundance and order. His house, the Red Branch, built in the likeness of the Tech Midchuarta in Tara, was very impressive, with nine compartments from the fire to the wall, separated by thirty-foot-high bronze partitions.
