Contained in what has come down to us of Greek literary tradition are texts that identify the Hyperboreans with the Celts, or Hyperborean lands with Celtic ones. This groundbreaking book studies the texts that make or imply this identification, and provides reasons why some ancient Greek authors identified a mythical people with an actual one. Timothy P. Bridgman demonstrates not only that these authors mythologize history, but that they used the traditional Greek parallel mythical world to interpret history throughout ancient Greek culture, thought and literature. 606 $aGreek literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aCelts in literature 606 $aMythology, Greek, in literature 606 $aLiterature and history$zGreece 606 $aCelts$xHistoriography 606 $aHistoriography$zGreece 606 $aCelts$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGreek literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aCelts in literature. 615 0$aMythology, Greek, in literature. 615 0$aLiterature and history 615 0$aCelts$xHistoriography. 615 0$aHistoriography 615 0$aCelts$xHistory. 676 $a880.915 700 $aBridgman$b Timothy P.$0878311 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450819203321 996 $aHyperboreans$91960734 997 $aUNINA
