Book Description
Publisher description: The account of Cú Chulainn's single-handed defence of Ulster against the assembled armies of Queen Medb of Connacht is recognized as the centrepiece of Irish heroic epic as well as a mine of information about the behaviour and beliefs of early Irish. This text attempts to bring together for the modern reader an account of the historical development of the tale, how it succeeds or fails as literature, and to what extent it is a 'window on the Iron Age'.
