An Dúchas Agus an Domhan
Gives an introduction to the study of Irish traditional society and of Irish folklore.



This book, entrely in Gaelic, introduces the field and the study of Irish folklore to Irish speakers. While the author's Locating Irish Folklore: Tradition, Modernity, Identity (CUP, 2000) deals with the intellectual problem of the invention of a concept of folklore and its application in an Irish context, An Duchas Agus an Domhan describes in detail the rich traditional culture of the Gaeltacht to which folklorists applied their training and defines the field of folklore as a scholarly discourse. It is the first such book written primarily for an Irish readership and one of the very few in any language that considers both the nature of traditional society and the discourse of folklore together. It gives a thematic treatment of vernacular worlds—concentrating on 'time', 'place' and 'community'—and of their changing relationships with the widening horizons of the state, modernity, and globalization. It is based on the ninteenth, twentieth and twenty-first century evidence of folklore, anthropology, (auto)biographical literature, and history.



Cad is bealoideas ann agus ca seasann se idir an duchas agus an domhan? Tuigtear de ghnath gur rud duchasach agus gur ghne thabhachtach de chuid na sochai traidisiunta e an bealoideas.

Tugann an leabhar seo cur sios ar an gcultur saibhir traidisiunta ar chuir scolairi bealoidis suim ann agus tugann se sainmhiniu ar ghort sin an bhealoidis mar dhioscursa leinn.

Is e an chead bhunleabhar ar leann an bhealoidis as Gaeilge e.
