Real Encounters: a Chronicle of Leprechaun and Fairy Accounts from Ireland: Authentic Stories from Medieval Times to the Present Day - A Comprehensive ... Experiences Across All Thirty-Two Counties - Brossura
Sinossi
This comprehensive chronicle presents over 1,200 years of documented encounters with Ireland's fairy folk and leprechauns, from medieval monastic records to contemporary digital testimonies. Drawing exclusively from authentic historical sources including the National Folklore Collection, medieval manuscripts, and scholarly archives, this work traces the evolution of supernatural traditions across all thirty-two counties of Ireland.
The book spans five major historical periods, documenting real encounters recorded by monks, scholars, folklorists, and ordinary people who claimed direct experiences with the otherworld. From the diplomatic fairy courts described in the Book of the Dun Cow to modern road construction halted by fairy trees, these accounts reveal how supernatural beliefs have remained a living part of Irish culture.
Featuring testimonies from the Irish Folklore Commission's Schools' Collection, interviews by renowned collectors like Thomas Crofton Croker and Lady Gregory, and contemporary accounts from tradition bearers like Eddie Lenihan, this chronicle preserves authentic voices while maintaining scholarly rigor. Complete with chronological timeline, glossary of supernatural terms, and guide to folklore archives, this work serves both academic researchers and general readers interested in Ireland's rich supernatural heritage.
