Felipa | Origins: Roisin Dubh (Dark Rosaleen) (11) | RE: Origins: Roisin Dubh (Dark Rosaleen) | 13 Dec 16 |
it seems to me that we are rehashing material that has been discussed in previous threads. Roisin Dubh has entered the oral tradition and there are variants of it in Irish language. If a poem or lyric is "attributed" or "ascribed" to someone that infers that we don't know for sure who the author was. Sometimes there is good evidence for authorship; in this case it strikes me as being weak. |
