Book Description
Ireland possesses an early and exceptionally rich medieval vernacular tradition in which memory plays a key role. What attitudes to remembering and forgetting are expressed in secular early Irish texts? How do the texts conceptualise the past and what does this conceptualisation tell us about the present and future? Who mediates and validates different versions of the past and how is future remembrance guaranteed? This study approaches such questions through close readings of individual texts. It centres on three major aspects of medieval Irish memory culture: places and landscapes, the provision of information about the past by miraculously old eye-witnesses, and the personal, social and cultural impact of forgetting. The discussions shed light on the relationship between memory and forgetting and explore the connections between the past, present and future. This shows the fascinating spatio-temporal identity constructions in medieval Ireland and links the Irish texts to the broader European world. The monograph makes this rich literary sources available to an interdisciplinary audience and is of interest to both a general medievalist audience and those working in Cultural Memory Studies.

Book Description
For those new to the ways of the Bhairdic & Druidic Irish Faery-Faith, Faery-Faith Traditional Wisdom, Codex 1, will be both an educational workbook and a magical tome. Replete with spiritual instruction and exercises, historical documentation, poetry, pathworkings, and invaluable references, Faery-Faith Traditional Wisdom, Codex 1 imparts timeless wisdom along with the guidance necessary for practical application in the 21st century. Faery-Faith Traditional Wisdom, Codex 1 endeavors to explain, explore, and provide experience into Irish Cosmology through the reconstruction of a valid Creation Myth, and goes on to explain how this applies to Faery Glamoury. No different then its past, the modern art of Faery Glamoury is centered around co-habitation with the natural world, connecting with the dormant powers of the Otherworld, reactivating doorways into Faery realms, awakening Faery Sleepers, and developing a more aligned communication with the Divine to assist us in connecting with our own Authentic Self. The contents found in this volume is the soul-stuff that Grove vows are sworn on. This is the knowledge of the adept, as we all very well know: information is power. The time for sharing of power is at hand. The Great Mystery will fulfill those who seek it.
