This is the third edition of Augustus Young’s selected versions of Dánta Grádha, a collection he made more than fifty years ago. The original translations, from a manuscript in the British Library, were first published in 1916 by the great Celtic scholar T. F. O’Rahilly (1882-1953) under the title Dánta Grádha: An Anthology of Irish Love Poetry. These personal love lyrics represented a last flourish of the Gaelic tradition before it lost its literate tongue.
