Samhradh 78


Book Description

Colin Quinn spent the summer of 1978 with his uncle, Ruairidh Gillies, on South Uist. While the world at large and many in the islands watch football in Argentina – didn't Ally MacLeod say Scotland would win the World Cup 'nae bother'? – two 'Barra' men deepen their relationship. Throughout these intense summer days and weeks, of almost forty years ago, we share the main characters' growing intimacy and mutual understanding at joyful times and while facing some major challenges. In their company we enjoy the pristine beauty of the southern isles and feel the wrath of the elements when their mood changes.

Brigh an Òrain - A Story in Every Song


Book Description

Few published collections of Gaelic song place the songs or their singers and communities in context. Brìgh an Òrain - A Story in Every Song corrects this, showing how the inherited art of a fourth-generation Canadian Gael fits within biographical, social, and historical contexts. It is the first major study of its kind to be undertaken for a Scottish Gaelic singer. The forty-eight songs and nine folktales in the collection are transcribed from field recordings and presented as the singer performed them, with an English translation provided. All the songs are accompanied by musical transcriptions. The book also includes a brief autobiography in Lauchie MacLellan's entertaining narrative style. John Shaw has added extensive notes and references, as well as photos and maps. In an era of growing appreciation of Celtic cultures, Brìgh an Òrain - A Story in Every Song makes an important Gaelic tradition available to the general reader. The materials also serve as a unique, adaptable resource for those with more specialized research or teaching interests in ethnology/folklore, Canadian studies, Gaelic language, ethnomusicology, Celtic studies, anthropology, and social history.

A dh'aindeoin Brexit, tha maorach a' fàgail nan eileanan gach seachdain airson na Roinn Eòrpa, agus bathar nach eil cho fallain a' tighinn nan àite. Cò e am Maighstir Mòr, agus cò na sgalagan a tha ag obair dha?
