Celticism A Myth (1884)

Celticism A Myth is a book written by James Cruikshank Roger in 1884. The book explores the popular belief in Celticism, which was the idea that the Celtic people were a superior race with a unique culture and history. Roger argues that this belief is a myth and that the Celtic people were not a homogenous group but rather a diverse collection of tribes with varying cultures and traditions. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of Celticism. Roger examines the origins of the belief, tracing it back to the Romantic movement of the 18th century. He also looks at the influence of Celtic mythology and folklore on the belief in Celticism. Throughout the book, Roger challenges the commonly held beliefs about the Celtic people, arguing that they were not a separate and distinct race but rather a group of people who shared certain cultural and linguistic characteristics. He also explores the impact of Celticism on contemporary society, arguing that it has led to the marginalization of other cultures and the perpetuation of stereotypes.Celticism A Myth is a thought-provoking and insightful book that challenges readers to reconsider their beliefs about the Celtic people and their culture. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Celtic people, as well as for those interested in the study of myth and folklore.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
