Fülszöveg
Ireland is peculiarly rich in both folktales and legends. Whereas folktales are fictional, recounted for amusement, legends are meant to be credible stories, told for the purpose of instruction: they are usually localised and down-to-carth, with some degree of historic validity - at least to the ears of their audience.
Nearly all the legends in this volume have been translated from oral field-collections made in the Irish language for the Irish Folklore commission. All the translations arc by the auth(^r and are published here for the first time. The collection includes stories about Fate and the supernatural, from devils and ghosts to fairies and mermaids; it deals with persons possessing special powers, and with the origins of names; and it commemorates pirates, highwaymen, robbers and historical personages, from Cromwell and Daniel O'Connell to C^ahal of tlie Red 1 land.
