Ancient Legends, Mystic Charms and Superstitions of Ireland is a luminous collection of Ireland’s enchanted past, lovingly gathered and retold by Lady Jane Wilde, poet, folklorist, and mother of Oscar Wilde.

Drawing from oral lore and ancient custom, Lady Wilde preserves tales of banshees and blessings, charms and curses, sacred wells, and the rites of the hearth and field. With deep reverence for Ireland’s ancestral voice, she offers not only stories, but the very soul of a people shaped by land and legend.

This treasury of Celtic tradition was first published in 1887 and is a vital portrait of Irish folk belief, exploring the magic and myth of the old ways.
