Essay - Dragon Slayers and Lion Friends: Intertextual Considerations in Tochmarc Emire

Abstract

There was a tremendous response to the Graduate School of the CACSSS’ inaugural PhD Essay Prize. The essays were reviewed by all the members of the Graduate School Executive Board. The process highlighted the excellent, engaged research being undertaken by postgraduate researchers across the disciplines in the college. The finalists were further double blind peer reviewed by national and international experts in the respective fields. It is with great pleasure that we now publish the inaugural recipient’s essay in this edition of Aigne, the postgraduate journal of the College of Arts, Celtic Studies and Social Sciences, at University College Cork. - Orla Murphy, Graduate School Executive Committee
