Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Three Irish Bardic Tales: Being Metrical Versions of the Three Tales Known as the Three Sorrows of Story-Telling Two of the following poems are reprinted from a former volume, the third The Fate of the Son 4 of Utna now appears for the first time. They are founded upon the three Bardic Tales traditionally known in Ireland as the Three Sorrows of Story-Telling. In telling again these old stories, I have freely handled my materials not following precisely any one of the many versions of each legend, but appropriating and adopting whatever best suited my purpose in each. Thus, in The Fate of the Sons of Usna I have retained the old ending of the tale, which makes Deirdre live for a year after the death of her lover, a captive in the house of Conchobar; because it seems to me to be an essentia! part of the primitive legend, and to touch a deeper note of tragedy than that adopted by Joyce in his Order in which she dies upon the grave. In the original tale of the Sons of Turenn, the adventures of Brian and his brothers are told at great length, and I have epitomised them in the form of a Lamentation, not founded on any existing poem.
