Download or read book Uisneach or the Center of Ireland written by Frédéric Armao and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hill of Uisneach lies almost exactly at the geographical center of Ireland. Remarkably, a fraction at least of the ancient Irish population was aware of that fact. There is no doubt that the place of Uisneach in Irish mythology, and more broadly speaking the Celtic world, was of utmost importance: Uisneach was – and probably still is – best defined as a sacred hill at the center of Ireland, possibly the sacred hill of the center of Ireland. Uisneach or the Center of Ireland explores the medieval documents connected with the hill and compares them with both archeological data and modern Irish folklore. In the early 21st century, a Fire Festival started being held on Uisneach in connection with the festival of Bealtaine, in early May, arguably in an attempt to echo more ancient traditions: the celebration was attended by Michael D. Higgins, the current president of Ireland, who lit the fire of Uisneach on 6 May 2017. This book argues that the symbolic significance of the hill has echoed the evolution of Irish society through time, be it in political, spiritual and religious terms or, perhaps more accurately, in terms of identity and Irishness. It is relevant for scholars and advanced students in the fields of cultural history, Irish history and cultural studies.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Deirdre and the Sons of Uisneach: A Scoto-Irish Romance of the First Century A. D The larger portion of the following compilation was read to the Glasgow Bankers' Debating and Literary Society in December last, and has been allowed to retain much of its original form, with the addition of some explanatory notes, where these seemed necessary. The previous month of September had been spent at Ledaig, near Oban, where, as a holiday task, the writer learned something of the history of the clan commemorated in the neighbouring vitrified Fort of the Sons of Uisneach. Subsequent research showed how widely their story was known to Celtic scholarship, and in what various forms it had already been published. To the general reader, however, as ignorant of Gaelic as the present writer, the story may serve as an introduction to the comparatively unknown, but wonderfully interesting, field of ancient Celtic literature, and it is to the general reader alone that these notes are now offered.

Synge is a poignant Irish tragedy that retells the ancient legend of Deirdre, a woman whose beauty and tragic fate captivated Celtic mythology. Set in ancient Ireland, the play follows Deirdre, a woman of unparalleled beauty who is prophesied to bring doom and destruction to those around her. From her birth, Deirdre is destined for tragedy, as she is foretold to bring sorrow and bloodshed to the kingdom. Despite efforts to protect her from her fate, Deirdre falls in love with Naisi, a handsome warrior, and the two elope together, defying the wishes of King Conchubar, who desires Deirdre for himself. As Deirdre and Naisi attempt to build a life together in exile, they are pursued by Conchubar's men, leading to a series of tragic events that culminate in betrayal, violence, and ultimately, the deaths of Deirdre and Naisi. Through their story, Synge explores themes of fate, love, and the destructive power of desire.
