Marie-Louise Sjoestedt-Jonval (1900 – 1940) was a French linguist and literary scholar who specialized in Celtic studies, especially Irish mythology. 

This is her best-known work, which appeared in a posthumous English translation by Myles Dillon as Gods and Heroes of the Celts (1949). It deals with the gods and heroes of the continental Celts and Irish mythology.
