 CELT: Lecture by Professor Kuno Meyer, PH.D.
LECTURE BY PROFESSOR KUNO MEYER, PH.D. On Thursday, May 14, Dr. Kuno Meyer delivered a lecture in the Large Concert Hall of the Rotunda.
Kuno Meyer then delivered his lecture, in the course of which he said The Gaelic revival, one of the most remarkable and unexpected national movements of our time, is an event of such recency that even the youngest amongst us can remember its beginnings.
Douglas Hyde, on his own behalf, and on behalf of those present, wished to thank Dr. Kuno Meyer for his interesting and useful lecture, and for suggesting a scheme for establishing a school of Irish literature, philology, and history.

 Immram Bran
The Voyage of Bran Son of Febal, Kuno Meyer, David Nutt on the Strand, London, 1895.
Meyer translates they "would not converse" My impression is that they simply were ignoring Bran and his companions, rather than laughing at them.
Meyer translates as "joy." However the feeling is that the gaping laughter is forced and seems to have no real substance.

 Etruscan
The mention of Etruscan in connection with arbitrarily contrived speeches, cants, jargons etc. may sound far fetched, Etruscan is an ancient language whereas the notices of cant and other secret languages are of more recent occurance, with one exception and this is Shelta, the language of the Irish Travelers or Tinker clans.
Shelta is a cant or arbitrarily contrived speech which the eminent Gaelic scholar Kuno Meyer believed to have been at one time the possession of the Filid or ancient poets of Ireland, and to be the same as the cryptic speech called Ogham.
Kuno Meyer goes on to describe the processes by which Shelta words were fabricated from the Irish ones, and it is with these same processes applied to Latin words that we will begin to understand how Etruscan words were formed.

Meyer's "Death Tales of the Ulster Heroes" and "Fianaigecht" (poems about Finn and the Fiana) are available from the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies (www.dias.ie).
Meyer was German and wrote much more in that language than in English.

 School of Celtic Studies - 50th Anniversary Report - History of the School of Celtic Studies
The School of Irish Learning had been founded in 1903 by the German scholar Kuno Meyer.
Kuno Meyer's declared object was to make Ireland the international centre for Irish Studies and, according to R. Best (ibid.), `he maintained that it was nothing short of a disgrace that work of so national a character should be so often left to the foreigner'.
John Strachan had a more central rôle, almost equal to that of Kuno Meyer himself.

 [No title]
The Project Gutenberg EBook of The German Classics of The Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries, Volume I., by Editor-in-Chief: Kuno Francke This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with almost no restrictions whatsoever.
With these are associated preferences for verse or prose; for idealism or realism and naturalism; a falling away from philosophy or an inclination to introduce it into poetry; and numerous other disguises for those antagonistic principles, to which Kuno Francke in a general survey of our literature has sought to trace back its different phases.
Scientific work seems for a while to have entirely replaced poetic activity, as for a moment the scientific prose of Ranke and Helmholtz came near to being of more consequence for the German language than most of what was produced at the same time by so-called poetry.

In 1906, Kuno Meyer published The Triads of Ireland as volume 13 of the Todd Lecture Series of the Royal Irish Academy.
Meyer translated this as "a triadic arrangement of the sayings of Irishmen", and noted that "it is but a small portion of the large number of triads scattered throughout early Irish literature." The text of Trecheng Breth Féne is found in largely identical form in the following manuscripts:
Meyer used these six manuscripts to construct his critical text.

 BEING PRESENT WITH
I've been entranced with Meyer's collection for some time now, as a guide to the possibilities of oral poetry.
To look at the place of the Celt in Scottish history is quickly to become aware, not of a smooth transition from one event to another, an ascent of some sort, but rather of a series of checks and setbacks, and a final discontinuity, a shattering.
So - in contrast to Meyer's anonymous Celtic authors' identification with the tribe we can set Holub's ironic distance from his political masters, and the very elegant trajectory of his inner political resistance.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Irish Literature
Their language and style, says Kuno Meyer, stand on a high level in comparison with those of the Old High German glosses.
Much of the ancient poetry in the schools was in the nature of a memoria technica, the frame in which valuable information was enshrined, but the bards attached to the great houses chanted a different strain.
The School of Irish Learning under Dr. Bergin, of which Kuno Meyer was the practical founder, gives higher university teaching in comparative philology, phonology, comparative grammar, and the reading of the old vellum MSS.

Dr Atkinson is an Englishman, but unfortunately not only fellow-professors in Trinity but undergraduates there have been influenced by his opinion, that Irish literature is a thing to be despised.
I believe the forty students of old Irish lately called together by Professor Kuno Meyer will not rest satisfied until they have explored the scores and scores of uncatalogued and untranslated manuscripts in Trinity College Library, and that the enthusiasm which the Gaelic League has given birth to will lead to much fine scholarship.
It was heard or read by Mr Yeats, he cannot remember where, but he had, with it in his mind, written of "Caoilte's burning hair" in one of his poems.

 Life of St. Declan / Betha Decclain
The fact that these scholars, who were mostly Christians, sought asylum in Ireland indicates that Christianity had already penetrated thither, or at any rate that it was known and tolerated there.
Dr. Meyer answers the objection that if so large and so important an invasion of scholars took place we ought have some reference to the fact in the Irish annals.
The annals, he replies, are of local origin and they rarely refer in their oldest parts to national events: moreover they are very meagre in their information about the fifth century.
