This text explores the place, meaning and content of Celtic sport:
the place, passion and meaning of rugby in Wales; shinty in
Scotland; and football in Brittany. It provides for an explanation
of the links betweenn civic and ethnic nationalism in Irish sport,
the role of the Gaelic Athletic Association in both Ireland and
Scotland, and a critical evaluation of the part played by sport in
political nationalism in France. The author seeks to explain why so
many of the peripheral borderlands of Europe, struggling for
elements of autonomy, tend to be pasionate about national and
regional forms of sport.
