    • Literary term definitions and examples
    • Summaries of the three myths: "The Great Musician," "The Legend of Tir Na Nog," and "The Raven Brings the Salmon"
    • Analysis of the three myths (ask yourself: what thematic statement applies to each? What tone can be used? What are possible symbols? Possible examples of imagery?)
