    Extractions: According to the traditions of the Lebor Gabala Erren (Book of the Taking of Ireland), the Irish originated in Scythia and were descendants of a King Feinius Farsaid, a King of Scythia. This Feinius Farsaid and his son, Nel, went into Asia to work on the Tower of Nimrod (Tower of Babel in biblical history) and were present at the subsequent dispersal of the races after the destruction of the tower. Feinius and his son, both learned in the new languages which resulted from the dispersal, returned to Scythia where Feinius opened a great school of languages on the Scythian plain. In time his son Nel became such an expert in languages that pharoa of Egypt invited him into his country to teach his people the new languages of the world. So Nel went to Egypt and there he married Scota, pharoa's daughter. After pharoa was drowned in the Red Sea in pursuit of Moses and his band of Hebrews, Nel's great-grandson, Sru, fled from Egypt for fear of persecution by the Egyptians and with his son, Heber Scot, returned to Scythia. There Heber Scot won the kingship of Scythia. After a few generations, a descendant of Heber Scot, named Agnomain, killed a rival for the kingship of Scythia (a kingsman) and in revenge was driven from the country.

    Extractions: n. One of a race of elves in Irish folklore who can reveal hidden treasure to those who catch them. [Irish Gaelic luprach¡n , alteration of Middle Irish luchrup¡n , from Old Irish luchorp¡n luchorp lº- , small + corp , body, from Latin corpus -¡n , diminutive suff.] lep re·chaun ish adj. WORD HISTORY Nothing seems more Irish than the leprechaun; yet hiding within the word leprechaun is a word from another language entirely. If we look back beyond Modern Irish Gaelic luprach¡n and Middle Irish luchrup¡n to Old Irish luchorp¡n, we can see the connection. Luchorp¡n is a compound of Old Irish lº, meaning “small,” and the Old Irish word corp, “body.” Corp is borrowed from Latin corpus (which we know from habeas corpus ). Here is a piece of evidence attesting to the deep influence of Church Latin on the Irish language. Although the word is old in Irish it is fairly new in English, being first recorded in 1604.

    Extractions: kellyj@cofc.edu ENGL 360/370: Irish Mythology and the Celtic Revival Course Description This is a summer course scheduled for Summer II. Class will begin in Charleston on 13 July 2004; we will leave for Ireland on 23 July 2004 and return to Charleston on 8 August 2004. The course will count for six hours of credit. l This course will begin with two weeks of study in Charleston, during which students will learn the central stories of the two main cycles of Irish mythology—the Ulster cycle and the Finn cycle. The course will cover the pre-history of Ireland—both real and mythical—and the culture of the Celts in the first few centuries A. D. Students will learn about the medieval transmission of these pre-Christian, Celtic tales. And they will learn about the revival of these myths at the turn of the last century by studying the works of W. B. Yeats, Lady Gregory, J. M. Synge, James Joyce, and others. Then we will go to Ireland and visit the sites we’ve been studying: the Stoneage archeological sites, such as Knocknarea (Queen Maeve’s grave) and the celebrated Newgrange monument; sites crucial to the Irish epic, The Tain, such as Queen Maeve’s Gap on the beautiful Cooley Peninsula; and sites of immense literary value, such as the Aran Islands, and the Yeats and Joyce towers. The trip will include a short visit to the Yeats Summer School in Sligotown, four nights at the historical Trinity College in the heart of Dublin, and visits to the vibrant modern and medieval cities of Galway and Kilkenny.

    Extractions: Tome of Celtic Mythology Sorry, but your browser does not have the plug-in to play this midi. Table of Contents Caer The Fianna Scota Sangreal ... Back to Text List By: Linda Ann Ingram Write us at: raven@qnet.com Scota Scota was thought to be the earliest ancestor of the Scots. According to one story, she was the daughter of an Egyptian pharaoh. A wise teacher by the name of Niul, had settled in Egypt and become her husband. They had one child named Goidel, who gave his name to the Gaels. In another story, she was the wife of Milesius and was killed fighting the Tuatha De Danann. Table of Contents Sangreal The Sangreal, or Holy Grail, was the holy vessel of Authorian mythology. It was said to be the cup that Christ drank out of at the Last Supper and is believed to have caught the blood which flowed from the spear thrust in His side at the Crucifixion. It was thought to have been brought to Britain by Joseph of Arimathea, the rich man who buried Christ. It may have also been brought by his brother-in-law Bron and his son Alan. Originally it was Sir Percival who was the first to see the Grail and in later versions of the story, it was changed to Sir Galahad, as the only knight who was worthy enough to see such a vision.

    http://www.mysteriousbritain.co.uk/gods&goddesses/celtic/dagda.html
    
    Extractions: His symbols seem to have been the cauldron (inspiration and wisdom), and the club (probably primal power). His cauldron also has the power to restore life, and was always full, providing endless nourishment for his peoples. The cauldron appears much in Celtic mythology and becomes amalgamated into traditions of the grail in the later Arthurian Romances. The Dagda is also associated with the bardic tradition, and has a magical harp in his possession, which flies into the hands of its true owner when called. The Dagda had sexual intercourse with Morrigan while she straddled the river Unius, she gave him a plan for victory against the Formorians in exchange for his lovemaking.

    Extractions: Taller than Roman spears. Background to Celtic Mythology The fact that hundreds of place-names throughout Ireland derive their meaning from references to particular incidents in these stories is proof enough that the outline at least of these epic events really did take place. Let us read and enjoy them therefore in that context bearing in mind that the literary style adopted contains a good deal of repetition as one would expect from stories that emanated from an oral tradition. The peculiar turn of phrase and the rich cadence of language reflect the fact that these stories were originally told and later written down in Gaelic rather than in English. The Dispute: And so were gathered all their finest jewellery and their golden treasures and they were found to be exactly equal in worth and merit. And then were gathered their numerous flocks of sheep and their best rams and they were found to be equal, in that Maeve had an uncommonly fine ram but Ailill had a ram which was his equal. Then were gathered their herds of horses and their noblest stallions, and they were found to be equal, in that Maeve had a particularly noble stallion but Ailill had a stallion which was his equal.
