Über diesen Titel

Great collection of the timeless myths and fairy tales of the Celts by Joseph Jacobs

The annotations includes:

  • Author biography of Joseph Jacobs
  • The history of the Celts

Celtic mythology is widely considered to be among the most captivating of Europe's various mythologies due to the presence of a number of captivating aspects, including but not limited to: adventure, heroism, romance, and magic.

The Celts were once a great people who dominated most of Europe, but, as a result of Roman invasions, they have since been reduced to a few minor groupings. Their mythology, on the other hand, was preserved largely as a result of the efforts of later monks from Ireland and Wales who wrote down the stories.

The ancient Celts were a group of people with central European origins who had a common culture, language, and worldview. The Celts moved around over time. They established businesses all over Europe, from Britain and Spain to Turkey and Ireland.

It is unclear how race, language, and culture are related in the Celtic realm, and there is disagreement about what terms should be used to describe the Iron Age inhabitants of Britain and Ireland. The term "Celt" no longer generally refers to a particular ethnic group, but rather to "speakers of Celtic languages" in academic circles.

This mystery surrounding the Celts make their Fairy tales and myths even more interesting and sought after, especially the ancient long forgotten ones in this tile which have been selected by Joseph Jacobs.
