I always thought the Tain was more like an Irish version of the Iliad though. Just substitute cows for women.
LOL...too true. I took it the semester that Troy was coming out so I kept having mental images of Brad Pitt as Cuchullainn (good thing or not?). Like every good hero, he and Achilles get to be sulky in return for being invincible. And the women join the fray. EVERYONE WANTS THE CATTLE!
