Celtic myth has long fascinated readers with its magical creatures, heroic warriors, and romantic tales. First written down in medieval Wales and Ireland, the legends derive from oral poetry composed many centuries earlier. The Celts who shared these myths left behind treasures and monuments that predate the written texts but are closely connected with them. This concise volume weaves together evidence from manuscripts, artifacts, and inscriptions to explore the world of the Celts and their mythology.--From publisher description.;"The perfect introduction for the modern reader to the world of Celtic myth and legend"--Back cover.;The Celtic world : space, time, and evidence -- Word of mouth : making myths -- The myth-spinners -- A plethora of Irish spirits -- Enchanted Wales : a magical land -- The champion's portion : mythical heroes -- Enchanting animals and edgy beings -- Dangerous liaisons : monstrous regiments of women -- Land and water : a seethe of spirits -- Heaven and Hell : paradise and the underworld -- Paganism and Christianity : the transformation of myth.
