Omschrijving

The Aran Islands is a book written by John M. Synge, detailing his experiences and observations during his trips to the Aran Islands, a group of three islands located off the west coast of Ireland. The book is a collection of essays, sketches, and stories that provide a vivid and insightful depiction of the people, culture, and way of life on the islands. Synge's writing is lyrical and poetic, conveying a deep appreciation and understanding of the islanders and their customs. He describes the harsh and rugged landscape of the islands, the traditional ways of fishing and farming, and the unique language and customs of the people. The book also contains illustrations by Jack B. Yeats, the celebrated Irish artist and brother of the poet William Butler Yeats. Overall, The Aran Islands is a timeless classic of travel writing, providing a fascinating glimpse into a world that is now largely vanished.A few of the younger men looked doubtful, but the older people, who have watched the rye turning into oats, seemed to accept the magic frankly, and did not show any surprise that 'a duine uasal' (a noble person) should be able to do like the witches.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
