Probably the oldest known spiritual discipline, shamanism is the timeless art of living in harmony with creation, providing a universal system to work with today, whatever our religion or spiritual affiliation may be. A reflection of a living tradition with a supremely practical approach to life, it teaches skills for living and ways to utilize latent abilities which we all possess. Celtic Shamanism derives from the native traditions of North-West Europe. The shamanic contribution of the Celts and their predecessors has been overlooked until recently, and is one of the last shamanic traditions to be explored. While it shares common elements with American, Australian and Siberian teachings, it derives entirely from Celtic source material. The Celtic Shaman offers a varied and easily followed plan of self-tuition for anyone interested in Celtic mythology and the Western mysteries.

A very readable guide which fills the gap between academic analysis and less critical retellings of the myths and legends. Marytn Whittock provides an accessible overview while also assessing the current state of research regarding the origins and significance of the myths. Since all records of the myths first occur in the early medieval period, the focus is on the survival of pre-Christian mythology and the interactions of the early Christian writers with these myths. A wide-ranging and enthralling introduction to Celtic mythology, from the Irish gods before gods, the Fomorians, to the children of Llyr, the sea deity; from the hunter-warrior Fionn mac Cumhaill, whose exploits are chronicled in the Fenian Cycle, to Cú Chulainn, the Hound of Ulster; and from the Welsh heroes of the Mabinogion to Arthur, King of Britain, though the mythical, Welsh version who predates the medieval legends.

Celtic Art is the only indigenous British art form of world significance and this book is a graphically eloquent plea for the establishment of this great national art to its rightful place in schools and colleges where the history of ornament is being taught.Until recently, the classical orientated art-world has regarded the abstract, iconographic and symbolic style of the Celtic artist as something of an enigma, a mysterious archaic survival largely ignored in histories of art. The modern trends away from realism and the interest of the younger generation in psychedelic and art nouveau styles provides favourable ground for the Celtic art revival which the widespread interest in this new edition seems to indicate is possible.When this book first appeared, it was hailed as a veritable grammar of ornament . It is certainly an indispensable reference book and practical textbook for the art student and craftsman seeking simple constructional methods for laying out complex ornamental schemes.The entire chronology of symbols is embrace from spirals through chevrons, step patterns and keys to knotwork interlacings, which are unique to this particular Celtic school. There are also sections dealing with zoomorphics, authentic Celtic knitwear, ceramics and other areas in which the author pioneered in his day.This book deals with the Pictish School of artist-craftsman, who cut pagan symbols like the Burghead Bull, and in the early Christian era designed such superb examples of monumental sculpture as the Aberlemno Cross, the Ardagh Chalice and the counter-parts in the Books of Kells and Lindisfarne.Knotwork Interlacings, owing much of their perfection and beauty to the use of mathematical formulae, are unique to Pictish Art and are found nowhere else than the areas occupied by the Picts. The outstanding achievement of their art was the subtle manner in which they combined artistic, geometric and mathematical methods with magic, imagination and logic, the function being both to teach and adorn.Although incidental to the main educational purpose of this book, there is also an implicit challenge to the art historian and archaeologist. The author frankly admits that the evidence such researches into the art have revealed of a hitherto unsuspected culture of much sophistication in pre-Roman Britain, pose as many questions as are answered.Who were the Picts? Whence the Asiatic origins of the Celtic Art?The instinct to ornament is one of the most basic human impulses that seems to have atavistic roots in the primeval creative and imaginative characteristic that separates man from beast.

An intimate study of the testimonies of witness to the Palestinian conflict told through the work of four Celtic artists who have experienced the conflict firsthand.Fieldnotes from Celtic Palestine embodies a new type of sociological writing that weaves ethnography with memoir as well as fusing other convention-breaking literary forms, styles, and devices. In its innovative analysis of the rhetorical power of the creative works of four Celtic witnesses to the conflict in Palestine, three Irish and one Welsh, it explores how the creative practitioner may effectively engage in political persuasion and activism without compromising their art. The book also reflects upon a series of encounters in the field between the author and various individuals, including political prisoners, diplomats, members of terrorist organizations, members of the security services, journalists, and politicians, but also ordinary people making their lives in a society profoundly shaped by brutal ethnopolitical occupation and conflict. Among the encounters told here is the experience of being served tea by the daughter of a Hamas suicide bomber and that of being taken to Jewish settlements regarded as illegal under international law. Diarmait Mac Giolla Chríost is a born-and-bred native of Derry in Northern Ireland and as a child of the Troubles brings to bear in this Celtic perspective on Palestine a close familiarity with the cost of living day-to-day with the reality of political violence.

An Irish proverb tells us. “A tale is more precious than the wealth of the world,” and judging from the richness of their storytelling traditions, the Celts have always believed this. In In fairy tales, as in music, the romantic artistry of the Celts came to full flower. In this wonderful collection of fairy tales from Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Cornwall, The Isle of Man, and Brittany, we meet heroes and villains, princes and paupers, enchanting creatures and magical mermaids. Each story has been retold by Neil Philip and display a common Celtic heritage in their love of extravagance and poetry, their quick wit and their daring sense of adventure.Here, retold much as they were around Celtic peat fires a hundred years ago, are the enthralling tales of ‘Fair, Brown, and Trembling’, ‘The Brown Bear of the Green Glen’, and ‘The Ship That Went to America’. Some of the stories give familiar tales a Celtic twist: ‘Duffy and the Devil’ is a comic Cornish take on the Rumpelstiltskin story; ‘The Black Cat’ is a dark and mysterious Breton Cinderella. Others seem new and strange: the doomed love of ‘Lutey and the Mermaid’, or the mystic rapture of ‘The Little Bird’. Perhaps most riveting of call is the Irish tale of ‘The Soul Cages’, in which a fisherman makes friends with one of the sea-people, Coomara, and uses that friendship to free the souls of drowned sailors, kept by Coomara in lobster pots in his house beneath the waves. Illustrated in watercolor and gold by acclaimed artist Isabelle Brent, these tales are full of Celtic magic.

The Norsemen of old Scandinavia were a tough and hardy people, best known today for their prowess in bloody combat and storytelling. Because they had no writing, the frightening reputation of warriors survives, but Norse mythology -- all storytelling -- is less known. This book documents the Norse myths that were sources of entertainment, comfort and explanations of the universe -- from animals to the seasons to the afterlife. Given that there are no surviving texts, the remaining myths have been changed through hundreds of years of oral tradition. Norse Mythology draws on Prose Edda and Poetic Edda, the two earliest and most faithful recordings of Norse myths. The chapters include: An introduction to Norse history and culture -- Vikings, long ships, and raiding Cyclical time: Runes, the creation of the Cosmos, First Gods Yggdrasil and the Nine Realms The Aesir Gods (Odin, Thor, Loki, Sif, Baldur, Idun) The Vanir Gods (Njord, Freyr, Freyja, The Mighty Thor) The Jotnar (Hela, Skadi, Skoll and Hati) Monsters and other creatures (Dwarves, light elves Sleipnir, Odin s eight-legged horse, Kraken, trolls) Other myths (why is the sea salty?) Ragnarok and the Rebirth of the World. Illustrated in color throughout and accompanied by maps and photos of archaeological treasures, this is a highly entertaining and informative read as the world of entertainment draws more stories from Norse mythology.
