Visions and Beliefs in the West of Ireland

Description

The material in this book was collected over a period of more than twenty years and proved to be a valuable source not only for Gregory's own plays but also for Yeats' work. It presents many aspects of the supernatural; seers, healers, charms, banshees, forths, the evil eye and contains a treasure trove of Irish folk-beliefs from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

This book has 356 pages in the PDF version, and was originally published in 1920.
