Claare Ny Gael
Sunday, 1 December 2024 - 49 minutes
William Gell has brought us from Douglas Head to Derbyhaven and Castletown in his 1906 publication, Mannin Veg Veen, a poem in which he paid tribute to the Three Legs with his three-legged rhyming scheme. He's no sooner given a nod to Castle Rushen than he takes us back out to Langness.
Although they're called Fairy Tales, the stories collected by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm are sometimes odd, sometimes gruesome. Even when the stories have come to be known to us in milder forms which are often the basis of pantomimes, they often contain extra details or incidents which you probably wouldn't want to show any children in the audience. We dip into their collection in a translation into Manx.
