The Cath Maige Tuired, for a wider audience: Part 8~ What the Dagda Did Next.
This audio re-telling of 'The Battle of Moytura' is especially designed for, but not limited to, a younger audience. In part 8, What the Dagda Did Next , the 'Big Man gets to consume a whole cauldren of food all by himself goes on to and encounters two extraordinary women Battle Poets. Discover more about the The Cath Maige Tuired Notes for this story I have had to take a slightly 'Lady Gregory' approach to this section as the description of the encounter between Dagda and Indech's daughter is, somewhar, explicit, and I am ensuring these re-tellings are fully appropriate for older primary age-group, This encounter includes an example of a poetic 'battle-rap.' The original sequence which begins with the Dagda's name wordplay has the quality of early Rosc poetry where each short alliterative line re-translates the one that goes before. For more listen to this podcast conversation or read Isolde's post on the Names of the Dagda. It is well worth re-telling these stories as they introduce two of these powerful battle poets and illustrate the inportant roles expected to be undertaken by women in these early stories.
