		Jirel loves passionately and hates feverishly, and she finds herself sometimes torn between her duty as the feudal lord of Joiry and her deepest and darkest passions.
		Jirel encounters many terrors on her sojourn through this plane: stampedes of cursed blind horses, gibbering rat-like fiends, and a taunting mirror image of herself.
		Jirel reacts with revulsion to most of it, but another instinct also causes her to shed tears for the land, which feels as if it writhes in pain.

		Standing on his front lawn, Jirel choked back tears while reading a statement outlining his dispute with city leaders, who he said put him on probation last week for allowing department morale to plummet and not reducing overtime expenses.
		Jirel, 51, said city management pressured him to maintain adequate staffing levels while reducing manpower hours, cut back vacation time and benefits, and discourage union participation -- all while keeping morale up.
		Jirel, whose salary was $61,260, started in Rock Hill in July 1999 -- two years after retiring from Columbia's fire department after 27 years there.

		Jirel resigned March 25 and later said it was because he was frustrated after then-interim City Manager Gerry Schapiro placed him on probation for the department's low morale and excessive overtime pay.
		The firefighters' letter absolved Jirel from being responsible for any morale problem, saying the situation existed before his arrival in 1999 and is the responsibility of the firefighters to sort out.
		Bill Haigler, president of the local firefighters union that was at the center of a controversy with the city and Jirel during the past several months, said he attended last week's meetings but could not comment on the situation.

		Created by author CL Moore, Jirel of Joiry is a woman with a spirit of pure molten steel.
		Nothing can prevent Jirel from her aims; not men, not the church, not magic, not demons, not gods, not even death can stop her.
		As a hero (heroine is a bit of a silly word) she has more in common with her contemporaries such as Robert E Howard's Conan, or Burroughs' Tarzan.

	In Memoriam, Catherine Lucille Moore, 1911- (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		C.L. Moore always went by her initials, but no man could have written the kind of highly emotional stories that she published between 1933 and 1955.
		I believe, she was the first female swords and sorcery writer, with her exciting tales of Jirel of Joiry, flame-haired warrior maiden, who never submitted to her male conquerors with any grace at all, and frequently roused the Hosts of Hell to fight on her side.
		I prefer the Jirel of Joiry and Northwest Smith stories.) Here's a list of her best short stories and where they originally appeared taken almost verbatim from Contemporary Authors volume 104.

	Anthropological Linguistics Vol. 44, no. 1
		As a result of ethnographic field research conducted in the summer of 1999 among the Jirel, a Tibeto-Burman–speaking people in eastern Nepal, ethnosemantic data concerning the Jirel names for 134 species of birds found in their territory were collected.
		The semantic structure of these Jirel words for birds offers no surprises in the general folk classification literature in that they provide a clear Life Form taxon (gloss ‘bird’) and a reasonable set of generic taxa for the Jirel bird lexicon.
		These subdivisions, as shown by the responses to sorting tasks, make reference to meanings that would be not expected in a taxonomic hierarchy model of folk taxonomies, but more closely conform to a natural core model.

		Jirel paved the way for many other S&S heroines who ranged from empowered feminists to (maybe too often!) male wish-fulfilling dominatrices.
