The Poems of J. J. Callanan (1847) — the Cork Romantic-nationalist poet's collected verse

Summary

*The Poems of J. J. Callanan*, 1847 edition. Jeremiah Joseph Callanan (1795-1829) was a Cork-born Romantic-nationalist poet, often grouped with the early Young-Ireland literary current. His translations from the Irish (e.g. "The Convict of Clonmel," "Gougane Barra") are West-Cork-saturated and a useful poetic source for the homeland chapters — literary atmosphere rather than evidentiary content. Held in both PDF and EPUB formats locally.
