RELIGION OF THE ANCIENT CELTS
This book is available NOW to order
This is a masterly and extremely readable survey, it offers a reconstruction of the essentials of Celtic Paganism: fascinating glimpses into indigenous forms of worship involving rites centered on rivers and wells, trees and plants, and animals; and examinations of evidence from Celtic burial mounds to explore beliefs and customs related to the culture of the dead, including rites of rebirth and transmigration.
John Arnott MacCulloch
From the editor:
In this book I have made use of all the available sources, and have endeavored to study the subject from the comparative point of view and in the light of the anthropological method. I have also interpreted the earlier cults by means of recent folk-survivals over the Celtic area wherever it has seemed necessary to do so. The results are summarized in the introductory chapter of the work, and students of religion, and especially of Celtic religion, must judge how far they form a true interpretation of the earlier faith of our Celtic forefathers, much of which resembles indigenous religion and folk-belief everywhere...
This classic study by a distinguished scholar, John MacCulloch, builds not only upon the surviving texts but also upon folk customs derived from the rituals of the original cults.
