Extractions: Although many of the manuscripts containing texts relating to Irish mythology have failed to survive, and much more material was probably never committed to writing, there is enough remaining to enable the identification of four distinct, if overlapping, cycles: the Mythological Cycle, The Ulster Cycle, the Fenian Cycle and the Historical Cycle. There are also a number of extant mythological texts that do not fit into any of the cycles. In addition, there are a large number of recorded folk tales that, while not strictly mythological, feature personages from one or more of these four cycles. The three main manuscript sources for Irish mythology are the late 11th / early 12th century Lebor na hUidre which is in the library of the Royal Irish Academy , the early 12th century The Book of Leinster in the library of Trinity College, Dublin , and the Rawlinson manuscript B 502 ( Rawl. ), housed in the Bodleian Library at Oxford University . Despite the dates of these sources, most of the material they contain predates their composition and some can, on linguistic grounds, be dated back as far as the 5th or 6th centuries. Other important sources include a group of four manuscripts originating in the west to Ireland in the late 14th or early 15th centuries: The Yellow Book of Lecan The Great Book of Lecan The Book of Hy Many , and The Book of Ballymote . The first of these contains the earliest know version of the Táin Bó Cúailnge and is housed in Trinity College. The other three are in the Royal Academy. Other 15th century manuscripts, such as

These names evoke the wonder and vitality of irish mythology, a subject which fascinates many of us, and has inspired many a poet or author.
http://www.greenmanreview.com/celtic_myths.html

Extractions: Ella Young, editor, Celtic Wonder Tales (Dover Publications Inc., 1995) Lugh. Brigit. Conare. Chulaind. The Tuatha de Danaan. These names evoke the wonder and vitality of Irish mythology, a subject which fascinates many of us, and has inspired many a poet or author. These two collections present those with an interest a wide spectrum of stories there is remarkably little overlap but with a completely different focus. Gantz, holder of a Ph.D. in Celtic Languages and Literatures, takes a decidedly scholarly tone with his collection. In a lengthy forward, he provides a summarized history of the Celtic peoples, Irish storytelling and written manuscripts, and the mythology itself. Though a bit dry in the reading, the material is useful for placing these versions of the stories into their proper historical and literary context. He also includes a decent bibliography and brief footnotes for each of the stories. Each story is preceded by a short introduction further documenting the particular manuscript Gantz translated, and referencing any literary works (William Butler Yeats in particular) drawn from the story. According to the introduction, Gantz limited the selection, for space reasons, to those of the Mythological and Ulster cycles. The stories themselves are a good mix of romance and adventure, joy and sorrow. Among the more recognizable are "The Wooing of Etain," "The Boyhood Deeds of Cu Chulaind," "The Wasting Sickness of Cu Chulaind," and "The Destruction of Da Derga's Hostel." Though the prose is a bit dense to pick through, the tales are themselves enjoyable.
Irish Folklore And Mythology In The Nineteenth Centuries
The texts reprinted in this set encompass a wide range of different approaches to the promulgation of irish mythology, legend and folklore.
http://www.ganesha-publishing.com/irish/myth.htm

Extractions: 6 Volumes Locating Irish Folklore , dates the birth of the European folklore scholarship to an earlier period (as part of the seventeenth-century intellectual tradition) and stresses the place of Irish studies in this area in the wider European context. The texts reprinted in this set encompass a wide range of different approaches to the promulgation of Irish mythology, legend and folklore. The first work, by Lady Wilde (Oscar Wilde's mother) contains classic legends organised by themes such as Animal Legends or Saints' Legends. Her second book concentrates on ancient cures for common ailments such as asthma, mumps and jaundice, but also includes more general charms and superstitions concerning Withcraft and Leprechauns as well as a selection of Irish proverbs. The collections oftales in Volumes 4 and 5 of this set concentrateon material gathered directly from oral traditions and include rare works such as McCall's Pulse of the Bards. The compiler of the Folk Tales of Breffny states in his introduction that most were 'told to him by an old man who said he had more and better learning nor the scholars'. The final volume combines two different strands of Irish studies from the mid-nineteenth century. The work by John Quincy Adams (the sixth American president) re-tells as an heroic ode the tale of Ireland's conquest. The Ballads edited by MacCarthy were published in part to demonstrate that the Irish 'could establish for ourselves a distinct and separate existence in the world of letters'.

http://www.mythicalireland.com/mythology/concordance.html

Extractions: Joseph Campbell The following concordance is based on 'Gods and Fighting Men' by Lady Augusta Gregory, first published in 1904. Page number references are to the 1976 trade paperback edition published by the MacMillan Company of Canada Limited. Brief supplimentary material is taken from 'Dictionary of Irish Myth and Legend' by Ronan Coghlan, published in 1979 by Donard Publishing Comapany, and referenced as 'DIM' in the following text. As this is intended to be a concordance of the Irish mythological cycle only (as opposed to heroic, legendary, or historical material), references are limited to Part I, Books I - V, of Lady Gregory's volume. 'Gods and Fighting Men' was selected as the primary text for this concordance because it represents the most comprehensive synthesis of variant sources (both published and oral) ever attempted as a continuous narrative of Irish mythology. Lady Gregory lists her published sources as follows: O'Curry, 'Manners and Customs of the Ancient Irish'

http://www.saintpatricksland.com/CelticMythology1.htm

Extractions: Taller than Roman spears. Background to Celtic Mythology The fact that hundreds of place-names throughout Ireland derive their meaning from references to particular incidents in these stories is proof enough that the outline at least of these epic events really did take place. Let us read and enjoy them therefore in that context bearing in mind that the literary style adopted contains a good deal of repetition as one would expect from stories that emanated from an oral tradition. The peculiar turn of phrase and the rich cadence of language reflect the fact that these stories were originally told and later written down in Gaelic rather than in English. The Dispute: And so were gathered all their finest jewellery and their golden treasures and they were found to be exactly equal in worth and merit. And then were gathered their numerous flocks of sheep and their best rams and they were found to be equal, in that Maeve had an uncommonly fine ram but Ailill had a ram which was his equal. Then were gathered their herds of horses and their noblest stallions, and they were found to be equal, in that Maeve had a particularly noble stallion but Ailill had a stallion which was his equal.

Extractions: kellyj@cofc.edu ENGL 360/370: Irish Mythology and the Celtic Revival Course Description This is a summer course scheduled for Summer II. Class will begin in Charleston on 13 July 2004; we will leave for Ireland on 23 July 2004 and return to Charleston on 8 August 2004. The course will count for six hours of credit. l This course will begin with two weeks of study in Charleston, during which students will learn the central stories of the two main cycles of Irish mythologyâthe Ulster cycle and the Finn cycle. The course will cover the pre-history of Irelandâboth real and mythicalâand the culture of the Celts in the first few centuries A. D. Students will learn about the medieval transmission of these pre-Christian, Celtic tales. And they will learn about the revival of these myths at the turn of the last century by studying the works of W. B. Yeats, Lady Gregory, J. M. Synge, James Joyce, and others. Then we will go to Ireland and visit the sites weâve been studying: the Stoneage archeological sites, such as Knocknarea (Queen Maeveâs grave) and the celebrated Newgrange monument; sites crucial to the Irish epic, The Tain, such as Queen Maeveâs Gap on the beautiful Cooley Peninsula; and sites of immense literary value, such as the Aran Islands, and the Yeats and Joyce towers. The trip will include a short visit to the Yeats Summer School in Sligotown, four nights at the historical Trinity College in the heart of Dublin, and visits to the vibrant modern and medieval cities of Galway and Kilkenny.

Extractions: "The Annals of Clonmacnoise" say that "Jaruanell" was amongst those who came next to Ireland. He came from Greece along with Brittan who was the ancestor of the Welsh. The name "Jaruanell" is another form of the name IAR who was an ancestor of peoples in Ireland and Scotland and identified as Yair of the Bible. Yair belonged both to the Tribe of Menasseh and to the Tribe of Judah. The Assyrians referred to the descendants of Yair as the Iari. "The Annals of Clonmacnoise" say that "The Tower of Conyn" (of "Conan" in other versions) was conquered by invading Fomorians. The "Ffirvolge" also invaded Ireland. The "Ffirvolge" in other accounts are called the Fir Bolge or sons of Bolge and they were the Belgae, groups of whom settled in Britain, Ireland, and Belgium.
