Duine de sh�rsc�alaithe na Gaeilge In Ean�ir 1952, s� bliana sula bhfuair Peig Sayers b�s, thionscain Coimisi�n B�aloideasa �ireann agallaimh l�i agus � in ospid�al Naomh Anna, Baile �tha Cliath. Bh� Peig thar a bheith s�sta labhairt lena cuairteoir� a raibh Gaeilge Chiarra� ar a dtoil acu agus seanaithne aici orthu. Foils�tear den ch�ad uair in N�l Deireadh R�ite na hagallaimh sin mar aon le r�amhr� tathagach, tr�chtaireacht agus aistri�ch�n B�arla ar an ioml�n. Cuireann Peig i l�thair anseo seansc�alta idirn�isi�nta, sc�al Fianna�ochta, finsc�alta taistealacha, seanchas stairi�il agus s�sheanchas, roinnt paidreacha, agus t� c�pla l�ar�id �na mac, M�che�l � Gaoith�n, mar anlann leo. L�ir�onn na taifeadta� a bua mar sc�ala� oilte, a hacmhainn grinn, a m�reolas ar sc�alta traidisi�nta agus a cumas m�istri�il � gcur i l�thair tr� sh�ile mn�. Buana�onn an saothar seo ionad Pheig mar dhuine de sh�rsc�alaithe na Gaeilge agus cinnt�onn s� go bhfuil a cuid sc�ala�ochta le h�ireamh ar scoth na heala�ne b�il sa t�r seo. Among the first rank of Irish storytellers In January 1952, six years before she died, Peig Sayers was interviewed by a team from the Irish Folklore Commission in St Anne's Hospital, Dublin. She was more than happy to be recorded, and pleased to be visited by old friends, all of whom spoke fluent Kerry Irish. In Not the Final Word these interviews are published for the first time, in both Irish and English, along with a substantial introduction and detailed annotation. Here Peig tells her versions of international folktales, a Fenian tale, some prayers, migratory legends and historical and supernatural lore, illustrated in paintings by her son, M�che�l � Gaoith�n. She emerges as a warm and authentic storyteller, with a ready sense of humour, a deep knowledge of traditional narrative and highly skilled in its presentation. This collection reaffirms Peig Sayers's position in the first rank of Irish storytellers and firmly establishes her tales in the canon of Irish oral literature.
