Dánfhocail – Irish Epigrams in Verse
Collected and edited by the scholar T.F. O’Rahilly in 1921, the epigrams of Dánfhocail have been untranslated since their publication. This new edition provides a fresh introduction alongside translations of the epigrams, enabling access to a hidden gem of Irish literature which straddles the threshold of Irish literary and oral cultures over the course of many centuries.
Translated by Aidan Doyle and Ken Ó Donnchú
