Heroic Romances of Ireland by A. H. Leahy

Description

Heroic Romances of Ireland is a book by A. H. Leahy, first published in 1905. It presents English translations of ancient Irish sagas drawn primarily from the Ulster Cycle, a body of heroic legends centering around the figure of Cuchulain and the warriors of the Red Branch. These tales, originally preserved in medieval manuscripts, combine mythology, folklore, and early Irish history, capturing the values, conflicts, and supernatural elements of early Celtic culture. Leahy's work contributed to the Celtic Revival movement by making these stories accessible to English-speaking readers, offering a rare window into the poetic and heroic imagination of early Ireland.
