Prophecy, Fate and Memory in the Early and Medieval Celtic World
brings together a collection of studies that closely explore
aspects of culture and history of Celtic-speaking nations.
Non-narrative sources and cross-disciplinary approaches shed new
light on traditional questions concerning commemoration, sources of
political authority, and the nature of religious identity. Leading
scholars and early-career researchers bring to bear hermeneutics
from studies of religion and literary criticism alongside more
traditional philological and historical methodologies. All the
studies in this book bring to their particular tasks an
acknowledgement of the importance of religion in the worldview of
antiquity and the Middle Ages. Their approaches reflect a critical
turn in Celtic studies that has proved immensely productive across
the last two decades.
