"In 'Life, lore and song: essays in Irish tradition in honour of Ríonach uí Ógáin / 'Binneas an tSiansa': Aistí in onóir do Ríonach uí Ógáin', twenty-seven contributors offer a variety of scholarly and personal tributes to Ríonach uí Ógáin, professor emeritus of Irish Folklore and former director of the National Folklore Collection. The book engages with themes that have characterized her substantial contribution to scholarship both nationally and internationally, exploring topics such as the historical connections between traditional archives in Ireland, Scotland and the Nordic countries, folklore and folklore collecting, Irish folk tradition and ethnology, traditional music and song, and Irish manuscripts and poetry as rich sources of Irish tradition" - Book cover
