Description
A Woman's Words: Emer and Female Speech in the Ulster Cycle is a readable and provocative piece of work. It presents an underappreciated body of literature to a general audience in a timely and accessible manner and provides an admirably contextualized reading not only of the role of Emer, but of the shifting position of Irish women in the period immediately before the Norman Conquest.
