Irish Myths and Legends Vol 2: Cuchulain and the Red Branch of Ulster Kindle Edition

5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars 2 ratings

Lady Augusta Gregory's collection and translation of Irish folk legends brings, as Yeats observed, 'Ireland's gift of imagination to the world'.

Following on from the bestselling Irish Myths and Legends: Gods and Fighting Men, this second volume, originally titled Cuchulain of Muirthemne, tells of the brave exploits of Ireland's answer to Achilles, the fearless Cuchulain and the Red Branch of Ulster, as well as the overpowering love of his wife Emer.

Forming part of the bedrock of Gaelic legend, and translated faithfully from the idiom of Irish oral storytellers, this new volume is essential reading for anyone with an interest in Gaelic culture.

About the Author

LADY AUGUSTA GREGORY (1852-1932) was an Irish writer and playwright of the Gaelic Revival who, through her translations of Irish legends, her peasant comedies and fantasies based on folklore, her patronage of other artists and her work for the Abbey Theatre, played an immense part in the late nineteenth-century Irish literary renaissance.

Top review from the United States

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2024
Lady Gregory may be the best interpreter of ancient Irish myths and sagas. Written over 100 years ago, her style is very fresh for this genre. The current edition is well bound, good paper and a nice size. Highly recommended!!
