Tochmarc Étaíne (The Wooing of Étaín): Irish Mythology

Tochmarc Étaíne, or The Wooing of Étaín, is a major work of medieval Irish saga literature that weaves together kingship, divine love, jealousy, transformation, and fate. Centered on the enigmatic Étaín and the Tuatha Dé Danann, the tale reveals how Irish writers shaped older mythic material into a sophisticated narrative of memory, sovereignty, and otherworldly power.
