Project Gutenberg 2010-10-17 Public domain in the USA. 1140 Rolleston, T. W. (Thomas William) 1857 1920 Rolleston, Thomas William Rolleston, Thomas William Hazen Rolleston, T.W. Myths & Legends of the Celtic Race Myths and Legends of the Celtic Race "Myths & Legends of the Celtic Race" by T. W. Rolleston is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the rich heritage, traditions, and influences of the Celtic people, tracing their historical significance across Europe, particularly in the British Isles, and examining how their mythology and folklore contribute to the modern understanding of their culture. The book serves as a celebration of the Celtic race's impact on literature, art, and history, presenting the argument that their influence has been obscured over the ages. The opening of the book presents a powerful preface that emphasizes the enduring legacy of the past and the importance of recognizing the contributions of the Celtic race to contemporary society. It argues against the common use of the term "Anglo-Saxon" to describe the British people, positing instead that "Anglo-Celtic" better captures the unique blend of cultural influences. The preface sets the tone for the subsequent chapters, promising an exploration of Celtic myths, religion, and their historical narrative. Additionally, it critiques the simplification of the Celtic identity and foreshadows discussions that will uncover the complexities and richness of Celtic history and mythology.
