Beschreibung

Celtic Myths and Legends gathers the heroic, tragic, and magical narratives of the Irish and Welsh tradition into a lucid retelling for the modern reader. Moving from the divine race of the Tuatha Dé Danann to Cuchulain, Deirdre, Finn, and the Arthurian borderlands of Welsh legend, Rolleston presents myth as both literature and cultural memory. His prose is elegant, antiquarian, and interpretive, shaped by the Celtic Revival's fascination with folklore, epic cycles, and the spiritual imagination of early Europe. T. W. Rolleston was an Irish writer, critic, and poet deeply involved in the late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century recovery of Celtic culture. Associated with the Irish Literary Revival and attentive to the work of scholars, translators, and folklorists, he wrote for readers who sought access to traditions often confined to manuscripts or specialist studies. His background in literature and cultural nationalism informs the book's reverent yet accessible tone. This volume is recommended for readers interested in mythology, Irish literature, comparative folklore, or the imaginative sources behind later fantasy and romance. It remains a rewarding introduction to Celtic legend, not as a dry catalogue, but as a living treasury of beauty, heroism, enchantment, and loss.
