Another middle Irish text re-edited in 2010 by the Celticist Simon Rodway goes further still.
ChrisHOST
It tells of Embir, a daughter of Cain.
ChrisHOST
She's a siren, and she takes a trout as her mate.
ChrisHOST
I didn't make that up.
ChrisHOST
It's the explanation you'll find in almost every book, and it has been for over 150 years.

It goes back to the English Celticist Whitley Stokes, who published it in the early 1870s in the journal Revue Celtique.
ChrisHOST

Melissa BuckheitGUEST
It's beyond the purview of this talk.
Melissa BuckheitGUEST
But if we alter our sense of what is political, something established long ago in other literary fields and is prevalent in Celtic studies and Irish studies and obviously Renaissance studies, but even more so, how is the political also personal? Space floods black for us to think more inclusively when it comes to an early modern populations and worldviews, including their effective and quotidian lives, and how the dividing line between culture, society, personal, political, the aesthetic and the real, established ideas in literary studies seem beautifully, imperfectly, and complexly, more than we could ever know, to exist in Gaelic and Gaelicized Ireland across text and space.
Melissa BuckheitGUEST
Other questions.
Melissa BuckheitGUEST
Does relationship need to involve sex? Do we need to know that sex has occurred for it to be a relationship? This seems probably a startling thing to mention, but it's relevant if we think about the patron economy in bardic poetry.
Eoin MarrHOST

What's going on over there? Well, first of all, things with my personal research are going very well.
Tyler BaxterHOST
I'm very happy with my supervision team, I've gotten a lot of really good feedback on them, on what I've been able to accomplish so far in this first year, and so I'm feeling good about moving into the second year as far as my research goes, and I will hold off on getting into any details on that until I start the Celtic Revivals series on this podcast, because you will get plenty of it then.
Tyler BaxterHOST
But what I want to tell you a little bit about is the industrial action situation going on in Edinburgh and to share with you a creative way that I have used my Celtic Studies background to comment upon the whole situation.
Tyler BaxterHOST
My first meeting with my primary supervisor here at the university was actually on the picket line because the university is threatening to cut up to 1800 jobs potentially on account of a financial crisis that is the university administrator's framing But this is really very much a manufactured crisis now it is very true that higher education in the United Kingdom and really honestly, let's Be fair across much of the world right now, especially in the West is in crisis there is a big issue in terms of getting enough money to operate things and there's a especially big concern for the humanities and lots of humanities departments.
