I have compiled a list of Ulster Cycle materials, including prose narratives (mostly what is in the Ulidia 1994 list) but also dindshenchas articles, some poems, and items from Cóir Anmann. There were 75 titles on the original Ulidia list, and over 200 here, so I hope that it will help lead people to some of the lesser known stories, poems, and other bits and pieces. It's available on Knowledge Commons (a wonderful and non-profit alternative to academia.edu, you can follow them @hello). The titles all link directly to CODECS for information about editions, translations, etc. (Thank you to @codecs for being such a fantastic resource!) I hope people will find it useful. It's just a first version and there will certainly be many changes and additions needed in future, but I think it's in a state to be of some interest and use, at least. Corrections and suggestions are very welcome!

My last blog post of the year is up now and looks at some conflicting chronologies in the Ulster Cycle involving Medb and her family. These kinds of variations are typical of complex mythological systems and offer some interesting opportunities for us to think about how these stories might have been experienced by their original audiences and how modern readers might approach them.

New blog post! This week I look at how Cú Roí's soul is hidden in a golden apple inside a salmon that only appears every seven years, or, what folklorists call motif E710 External Soul. This turns out to be rare in medieval Irish literature, but more common in later folktales. I look at parallels in the stories of Cano, Cian, Conchobar, Cú Chulainn, and the Greek hero Meleager. #UlsterCycle #Celtic #CelticStudies #Irish #IrishLiterature #Folklore #Mythology #Medieval https://ulstercycle.hcommons.org/2024/11/18/cu-rois-soul-in-a-golden-apple/

I'm working on an English translation of "Version 1" of the medieval Irish text "The Death of Cú Roí," as there doesn't seem to be one. Cú Roí is known to be a sorcerer and uses magic to disguise himself in several stories. In this text though he is called "ind ammait" - "the witch/hag." The word is usually thought to be specific to women. More forthcoming on my blog, and the translation will be up Monday! #UlsterCycle #Medieval #IrishLiterature #Irish #Celtic #Blog #Mythology #CelticStudies

After years of reading the Ulster Cycle and teaching the Ulster Cycle and talking about the Ulster Cycle and publishing about the Ulster Cycle, I decided I might as well also blog about the Ulster Cycle, so here it is, my blog about the Ulster Cycle! The introductory post went up today and there will be more coming soon. I hope people will find it interesting and useful. #UlsterCycle #CelticStudies #Mythology #IrishLiterature #Medieval #academia #blog https://ulstercycle.hcommons.org/

Art for today, of my namesake, from the Ulster Cycle of Irish mythology. 🍀
My mom was 3rd generation New York Irish, and saw Deirdre as a legendary feminist heroine who battled what we now call toxic masculinity from day one of her life. Perhaps she thought the name would empower me to have Deirdre’s strength.
Deirdre of the Sorrows, by John Duncan.
