Articles liés à The Old Grey Magician: A Scottish Fionn Cycle
Synopsis
George Macpherson connects us with Scotland's oldest legends and traditions. His stories of Fionn and the Old Grey Magician reclaim a world of heroic exploits and honour, of wizardry, and druidic mystery. These tales are more ancient and authentic than James MacPherson's 'Poems of Ossian'. They provide a vital missing link in the Fionn cycles of Scotland and of Ireland. In this groundbreaking volume Ossian is truly reclaimed by the oral tradition.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Fionn Cycle: A loose collection of tales originating in Scotland, Ireland and the Isle of Man which surround hunter-warrior leader Fionn, his band of men and his poet son, Ossian. Old Grey Magician: A mystical, morally ambivalent figure who appears throughout Celtic mythology; in Ireland he is the Dark Druid, and often he appears as a seabird. The shapeshifting sorcerer is a thorn in Fionn's side, solving impossible problems but always asking too much in return. George W Macpherson has been telling the traditional tales of Fionn and the Fianna for years, artfully drawing in audiences with his storytelling talent. Gathered from sources all over the country and occasionally beyond, and collected here for the first time, the Old Grey Magician's exploits offer a fascinating insight into the traditions of Scotland and the development of oral storytelling. Introduced and situated in physical and literary history by Donald Smith, this collection reminds us of the importance of retaining the stories that shaped us. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9781910745410
