abstract:

The aim of my research has been to edit to modern standards the important Old and Middle Irish king-tale Cath Cairn Chonaill. The editorial work is accompanied by full transcripts of the manuscript witnesses on which it is founded, critical apparatus, detailed linguistic and critical analysis, textual annotation, and complete glossary and bibliography. An attempt has also been made to place the text in its appropriate historical, literary and cultural context.
