Book excerpt: An Irish folklorist presents a collection of little-known ancient myths, fireside tales, and modern fictions to celebrate the Celtic art of storytelling. Steeped in the oral traditions of rural Northern Ireland, Bob Curran celebrates the lore and legends of his people. This volume includes some of the oldest tales to be passed down across the centuries, as well as newer stories inspired by these Celtic roots. Celtic Lore & Legend includes tales of the heroes and gods from the Great Myth Cycles as well as stories of witches, ghosts, and fairies. This is the first anthology to seek out and record the traditions from many parts of the Western Celtic world—Ireland, Cornwall, Scotland, Wales, and Brittany—from as early as the seventeenth century.

Book excerpt: First written down in the eighth century AD, these early Irish stories depict a far older world - part myth, part legend and part history. Rich with magic and achingly beautiful, they speak of a land of heroic battles, intense love and warrior ideals, in which the otherworld is explored and men mingle freely with the gods. From the vivid adventures of the great Celtic hero Cu Chulaind, to the stunning 'Exile of the Sons of Uisliu' - a tale of treachery, honour and romance - these are masterpieces of passion and vitality, and form the foundation for the Irish literary tradition: a mythic legacy that was a powerful influence on the work of Yeats, Synge and Joyce.
