Episode Synopsis "A Gentle Amble Through Some of Ireland's Tree Heritage"
Barry Smith of Fingal Libraries writes and narrates this podcast that explores the role of trees in ancient Irish society. We will look at how trees became integral aspects of our ancestors’ world. How myths and legends were woven around their complex meaning and symbolism. How trees influenced our early society and became the inspiration for our first alphabet, objects of veneration, focal points in the landscape, proprietors of medicine and even filled precious vellum pages of brehon law texts. The dramatic decline of the importance of trees will be discussed but also the modern day attempts to restore Ireland’s woodlands.
