Product Description
This is a reprint edition, paperback , Dolmen Press, 1990 ( originally 1981) with 38 illustrations.
The primary purpose of this anthology is to demonstrate the nature and quality of the Irish poetic tradition during the troubled centuries from the collapse of the Gaelic order to the emergence of English as the dominant vernacular of the Irish people. The English translations, all new, have aimed at a close fidelity to the content of the originals while suggesting something of the poetic quality and the basic rhythms of the original Irish poems.
Dual language poetry - tá an leagan Gaeilge agus an leagan Béarla taobh le taobh.
Sunfade to spine, light ( but persistent) pencil underlining to the introduction, light scuffing and page tanning. Age spotting to the inside front title page.
