The first Celtic Studies Association of North America Yearbook (CSANAY) appeared in 2000, under the editorship of Joseph Falaky Nagy (UCLA) with the guidance of an editorial board consisting of Anders Ahlqvist (NUIG), Patrick K. Ford (Harvard U.), Catherine McKenna (CUNY Graduate Center), Robin Chapman Stacey (U. Washington), and Maria Tymoczko (U. Massachusetts at Amherst). CSANAY will be prepared under the aegis of the Celtic Studies Association of North America, which through its annual meetings has provided an important forum for the exchange of ideas within the international community of Celtic scholars since its founding nearly a quarter-century ago.

CSANAY's mission is to foster interdisciplinary and ground-breaking approaches to Celtic Studies. Each issue (128 to 160 pages in length) will be thematically organized, featuring scholarly articles of vital and timely interest not only to Celticists but also to literary critics, historians, linguists, folklorists, and scholars in other disciplines. The first issue (for the year 2000) centres on the theme of 'The Individual in Celtic Literatures' with an introduction by the Editor and articles by Helen Fulton ('Individual and Society in Owein/Yvain and Gereint/Erec'), Aideen O'Leary ('Mog Ruith and Apocalypticism in Eleventh-Century Ireland'), Brynley Roberts ('Where Were the Four Branches of the Mabinogi Written?'), Catherine McKenna ('Apotheosis and Evanescence: The Fortunes of Saint Brigit in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries'), and Elva Johnston ('The Salvation of the Individual and the Salvation of Society in Siaburcharpat Con Culaind').
