Live Irish Myths episode #152: Rebirth and reincarnation in Irish myth 3

We continue our exploration with a look at the old Irish ideas around afterlife and pre-Christian belief in rebirth and reincarnation as expressed in our ancient myths and legends. I will be reading from the work of Alfred Nutt in the second volume of 'The Voyage of Bran, son of Febal, to the land of the living', in which he included 'essays upon the Irish Vision of the Happy Otherworld: and the Celtic doctrine of Re-birth', in particular looking at the story of the two pig-keepers (the two swineherds).
