Carleton William Carleton | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Traits and Stories of the Irish Peasantry can be considered to be Carleton's greatest work. It went through a number of transformations before the 'definitive edition' was published in 1842-44. This edition was the last that Carleton actually oversaw; thus it is the culmination of his own work on the collection, and for this reason is the edition we publish, with the original illustrations. Volume 2 contains 'Geography of an Irish Oath' - 'The Lianhan Shee' - 'Going to Maynooth' - 'Phelim O'Toole's Courtship' - 'The Poor Scholar' - 'Wildgoose Lodge' - 'Tubber Derg'; or 'The Red Well' - 'Neal Malone'
