Textaufnahme der antike Autoren im mittelalterlichen Irland. Problemeinleitung

Summary/Abstract: The Irish literary legacy, as well as the Roman one, belongs to the one of the oldest legacies in Europe. Among numerous Irish texts preserved until today, the most interesting seems to be "Imtheahta Aeniasa", "Togail Troi", "Merugud Uilix", "Cath Catharda" and "Togail na Tebe". These works were the Irish versions of "Eneida", "De Excidio Troiae Historia", "Bellum Civilum" by Lukanus and "Statius" by Thebaid. Slight differences which can be noticed in Irish texts result from the fact that the texts were written in prose and the specificy of their language. In general, some like "Cath Catharda" were very precise copy of Roman text but others seems very original.
