The Ancient Celts: New Perspectives (Understanding Ancient Civilizations Series)

Roslyn Blyn-LaDrew

0/5 ( ratings)

"The Ancient Celts: New Perspectives" provides an engaging, authoritative portrait of a people who first emerged in Central Europe and once spanned the breadth of the continent. Drawing on everything from ancient Greek and Roman texts to classical commentaries to recent archaeological findings, it is the ideal volume for exploring a culture often shrouded in mystery and misconceptions.

"The Ancient Celts" ranges from the earliest evidence of the Celts to the Middle Ages, when the Romans departed Britain, Arthurian legends were born, and St. Patrick brought Christianity to Ireland. It also offers extensive coverage of the indomitable popularity of Celtic music, literature, and spirituality in modern times, as well as the ongoing "renegotiation" of which current nations and regions actually are of Celtic origin.
