Fionn Mac Chumaill. Warrior, Leader, Poet, Hero.
Exploring the Lore of Fionn in Irish Myth.
Enroll in Course
Online Course exploring the lore of one of Ireland's most famous Heroes, Fionn Mac Cumhaill. This class will dive into the tales of old Ireland and see what is to learn about this complex and multi talented individual, with Dagda Bard and Priest, Jon O'Sullivan (An Scéalaí Beag).
There are few names that come readily to mind when we think of ancient Irish Heroes. That is not because there was any lack of epic struggles, terrible monsters, or incredible feats to perform. It is simply because there were so few who rose above the rest of the champions, warriors, and chieftains, to become forever immortalized in our ancient tales.
This course will be exploring some of the tales of one of the last great heroes of ancient Ireland, Fionn Mac Cumhaill. We will be diving into his origins, his boyhood deeds, his greatest trials against this and Otherworldly foes, and seeing what it was that made him so remarkable and memorable. There is much to learn from the stories of Fionn, not least of which is the mystical origins of one of his greatest abilities, and why he would regularly suck his thumb.
This Teaching is suitable for beginners, as well as
those with more experience in this area, or in other traditions. You do
not have to be dedicated to or working with any Irish Gods, Guides, or

Your Instructor
Jon O'Sullivan (An Scéalaí Beag) is an Irish tour guide, author, and storyteller dedicated to the tales of his patron deity, the Dagda, chief of the Tuatha Dé Danann. Co-founder of the Irish Pagan School with his partner Lora O'Brien, Jon shares his knowledge and stories through multiple platforms. He regularly posts on the Irish Pagan School blog, YouTube channel, TikTok, and Patreon, where followers get to ask him questions and gain early access to his video responses. Living with his family in County Waterford, Ireland, Jon continues to weave words that connect hearts and minds to Ireland's rich lore and traditions.
Having little to no knowledge of the Irish pantheon of male deities, I felt that I stepped into a wonderful level of intimate experience and cultural background in a matter of a few paragraphs. From the warm and personable start to the mapping of the mythos landscape then to the examples of interlinking the Dagda to my own life journey, this is a rewarding turn down my own "path less taken." Thanks much!

Frequently Asked Questions
Loved receiving this class from Jon! His approachable manner makes the lecture portion easy to take in and understand, and the content, including the resources he points learners to, will keep on giving. I'm queer and transmasculine, and so it's really important for me to learn about deities in the Irish tradition who present us with alternative models of masculinity. Thank you Jon and the IPS for bringing us this class!
