Beskrivelse af Gods And Fighting Men
Gods and Fighting Men is a collection of ancient Irish myths and legends compiled and retold by Lady Augusta Gregory. The book is divided into four parts, each containing a series of stories that revolve around the heroes and gods of Irish mythology. In the first part, the stories focus on the creation of the world, the arrival of the Tuatha D����� Danann (the gods of Irish mythology), and their battles with the Fir Bolg and the Fomorians. The second part tells the story of the legendary hero C������chulainn and his many battles and adventures. The third part is centered around the hero Fionn mac Cumhaill and his band of warriors, the Fianna. The stories in this section include Fionn's childhood, his battles with other warriors, and his eventual downfall. The final part of the book contains a series of miscellaneous stories, including tales of the supernatural, the adventures of lesser-known heroes, and stories of love and betrayal. Throughout the book, Lady Gregory's retellings are vivid and engaging, bringing to life the rich and complex world of Irish mythology. Her prose is lyrical and poetic, capturing the beauty and mystery of these ancient tales. Overall, Gods and Fighting Men is a must-read for anyone interested in Irish mythology or folklore. It is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers with its timeless stories of gods, heroes, and magic.Now it chanced at that time there were three brothers of the Tuatha de Danaan living together in a place that was called Druim na Teine, the Ridge of the Fire, Goibniu and Samthainn and Cian.
