"It is with a feeling of anything but satisfaction that one arises from a perusal of extant accessible Gaelic literature for any assistance in tracing the origin of Irish dances. It may be candidly said that there are no allusions whatever to dancing either in old or mediaeval Irish literature. The one text to which an enquirer would naturally first turn, with some degree of confidence, for information on the subject is that entitled the Fair of Loc Carman, which deals with an ancient festival held at Loc Carman, the Wexford of to-day. In this very old and interesting text there are to be found some vivid descriptions of a number of entertainers, and of musicians in particular, who frequented the Fair, but there is no mention made of the man of dance. It is true that the name Fer Cengal, occurring in that text, has been interpreted by some as a dancer, and his dance has even been compared to the German Springendantz, which was a song and dance combined. The name, however, suggests an acrobat rather than a dancer, but as it does not appear elsewhere in Irish literature it would be unwise to build any theories on it." [...] This fantastic historic book on Irish Dances with general remarks, definitions, explanations and descriptions is a reprint of the originally published work from 1902."

Excerpt from A Handbook of Irish Dances: With an Essay on Their Origin and History IT has been suggested that the word Cronan, which is mentioned in the sixth century by St. Colman of Cloyne, originally meant a kind of singing accompaniment for dancing. There is no evidence, however, in support of this suggestion. It is now generally accepted that the word originally meant a musical bass, -and, later, a curious kind of nasal singing accomplished with the mouth shut. To the latter may possibly be ascribed the origin of what is known as the traditional style of Irish singing.

From early accounts of dance customs in medieval Ireland to the present, Helen Brennan offers an authoritative look at the evolution of Irish dance. Every type of dance from social to traditional to clergy is included. Brennan takes care to explain the different styles and traditions that evolved from different parts of Ireland; which results in some lively discussions as people reminisce over old favorites. She also discusses how dance evolved to become such an important part of Ireland's culture and history. An appendix is offered to help explain the various steps involved in each style of dance including the Munster or Southern style, Single Shuffle, Double Shuffle, Treble Shuffle, the Heel Plant, the Cut, the Rock or Puzzle, the Drum, the Sean Nos Dance Style of Connemara, and the Northern Style.
