Irish Sagas Online

A new website was launched at the annual UCC/ITS seminar on Saturday, 9 November, 2013. The aim of Irish Sagas Online (iso.ucc.ie) is to make available reliable versions of the original texts of medieval Irish sagas with parallel translations into Modern Irish and English. This website is the brainchild of Tom O'Donovan of University College Cork and has been launched with the participation and co-operation of the staff of the CELT project and the Celtic Digital Initiative. A central feature of this website is the provision of links to extant electronic resources which will allow interested parties better understand the context and content of Irish sagas.
