  • Three Irish Legends
    Read and listen. Three Irish Legends The Leprechaun Leprechauns, also known as ‘the little folk’, are very likeable and reflect the wonderful Irish sense of fun. Legend says that every leprechaun has a pot of gold which he must give to anyone who can catch him. But leprechauns are very clever and quick so there’s not much chance that you’ll be able to catch one! There are countless stories about leprechauns, like this one. A man was walking through a forest one day when a leprechaun jumped out in front of him. The man managed to grab him and he made the leprechaun take him to where his treasure was hidden. The man didn’t have a spade with him so he couldn’t dig it up, but he tied a red handkerchief to a bush so he could find it again. He went to get his spade but when he came back he couldn’t find the treasure, because there was a red handkerchief tied to every bush in the forest! New Horizons Digital 2 • Unit 5 pp.48–49 © Oxford University Press PHOTOCOPIABLE The Banshee Banshee is Irish (the language of Ireland) for fairy woman. If you hear the frightening crying of the banshee at night, it means that someone close to you has died. They say that sometimes she’s a mysterious white figure with long silver hair and a grey cloak. She’s tall and thin and her face is pale with eyes which are red from crying. At other times she’s able to appear as a lovely young girl with long red hair.

At age sixteen he was taken prisoner to Ireland and sold into slavery. After six years he escaped, symbolized in the painting by the broken chain on his right leg, and fled to France. There he was ordained a priest and later consecrated a bishop. In 432 A.D. he returned to the island of his captivity as a missionary bishop. In this painting he is carrying as his bishop's staff the famous Irish crozier of Clonmacnoise of County Offaly. Hanging by a cord from his right arm is Patrick's Bell, which, like other Irish saintly bishops, Patrick used to call God.

  • CU/LT 270 CELTIC MYTH and LEGEND in EARLY IRELAND IES Abroad Dublin
    CU/LT 270 CELTIC MYTH AND LEGEND IN EARLY IRELAND IES Abroad Dublin DESCRIPTION: This interdisciplinary course offers students an introduction to Irish heroic literature, Celtic mythology and Irish fairy tales and folklore. We will read a selection of early Irish tales from The Mythological Cycle, The Ulster Cycle, The Cycle of Finn and The Historical Cycle, exploring what literary genres our stories fit into, the significance of various recurring themes and symbols, the connections between Celtic mythology and other world mythologies and the origins of Arthurian legends as based upon Celtic prototypes. These stories offer a fascinating insight into the complex world of pre-Christian and early Christian Ireland by painting vivid portraits of life, culture and legends in pagan times. In addition to the literature aspect of this course, we will also explore insular and continental Celtic archaeology and early Irish history, both of which will enable us to place our stories within a tangible, historical framework. We will also examine legends of otherworldly beings that are particular to Ireland, such as the banshee, the leprechaun and the pooka—discussing how, over time, the mythology and pagan beliefs of early Ireland transformed into Irish folklore and superstitions.

  • The Word "Leprechaun" Comes from the Gaelic Luacharma'n, Meaning
    The Irish have always believed in superstitions, and like their ancient counterparts in Britain and Europe, many of their beliefs are rooted in pagan rituals which precede the introduction of Christianity. Long ago, it was a common fear among new mothers in Ireland that their infant might be a changeling - a fairy which has taken the shape of a human. Since this was apparently not a desirable situation, there were two tests which suspicious parents would carry out to make sure their child was human. Changelings were said to despise water, so the child's mother would carry the child while stepping over a river, believing that a changeling would reveal itself rather than be forced to get that close to water. It was also believed that changelings had an affinity for the bagpipes. Bagpipes would be placed near the bed, under the belief that no changeling could resist them for long and that if the child really was a changeling, he or she would soon give in and start playing them. At one time, the Irish believed that the element of Iron had magical properties and was capable of bringing good luck. This reverence also extended to those who worked with it; it was also believed that blacksmiths possessed secret knowledge that they could use to cure illnesses and cast out evil spirits. There are also some less benign superstitions held by the Irish, one of which is that of the Bean Sidhe, commonly known as the Banshee. The wailing of these ghostly "women of the hills" was said to foretell death and the wailing of more than one banshee was believed to foretell the death of someone important.

  • Saint Patrick's Day by Ghost Dear
    Saint Patrick’s Day By Ghost Dear Ombudsman staff and students, Welcome to the history and meaning of St. Patrick’s Day! St. Patrick’s Day is a global celebration of Irish culture on the 17th of March. You may be wondering, who is St. Patrick? Well to answer the question you probably didn’t ask, he was one of Ireland’s saints who spread Christianity in Ireland in the fifth century. Unknown to many Patrick wasn’t his real name and he wasn’t of Irish blood either. His true name was Maewyn Succat and he was, in fact, British. He was born to Roman parents in Scotland -or Wales- in the late fourth century. When young Patrick was at the ripe age of 16, he was kidnapped by raiders in northern Britain. Pirates sailed high across the Irish Sea where he was sold to slavery. That’s right people-- Irish were also slaves to many. He was forced to work with animals for 6 years in slavery before he escaped and returned to his family. And as the Irish legend states, St. Patrick used a shamrock as a metaphor for the Holy Trinity when he was first introducing Christianity to Ireland. Which felt weird writing because I am anything but holy. Now you may also be wondering why we celebrate it as Americans. Well, a good portion of Americans are in fact, Christian. So why wouldn’t we celebrate a saint who spread the religion? The first ever recorded St. Patrick’s Day parade wasn’t held in Ireland, but in New York City in 1762, due to the dramatic increase in Irish immigrants.
