One of the leading lights of the late-19th-century Irish literary renaissance, the Irish writer, folklorist, and playwright Lady Augusta Gregory was instrumental in collecting and preserving the folklore of her country. She translated these tales of the legendary Cuchulain an Irish Achilles who was the greatest of ancient Ireland's fabled Knights of the Red Branch from the original Irish, melding variants of each tale to achieve, enthralling accounts of the great knight's birth and boyhood deeds, superhuman exploits in love and war, and premature death along with the unforgettable story of the beautiful, overpowering love demonstrated by his wife, Emer. All of these events are recounted in the same plain and simple style Lady Gregory first heard in stories told by her childhood nurse.Of this book by his friend and patroness, W. B. Yeats said, "I think this book is the best that has come out of Ireland in my time. Perhaps I should say that this is the best book that has ever come out of Ireland; for the stories which it tells are a chief part of Ireland's gift to the imagination of the world." Students and scholars of folklore or Celtic mythology will prize this edition for its authentic recounting of the tales and general readers will be delighted both by the imaginative richness of the tales and the beautiful style in which they are told.
