Early Bardic Literature, Ireland

"Early Bardic Literature, Ireland" by Standish O'Grady is a thoughtful essay that explores the nature of mythology and how it developed in Irish culture. Through this book, O'Grady is able to narrate just how the many stories that have helped develop Ireland's magical customs and traditions came to be and the part Bards played in spreading these tales throughout the country to the various small villages within it.
