Divided into three parts, the first covers the continental Celts in prehistory and antiquity, complete with accounts of the Celts in Germany, France, Italy, Iberia and Asia Minor. Part Two follows the Celts from the departure of the Romans to the late Middle Ages, including the migrations to and settlements in Ireland, Wales, Scotland and Brittany. This section also includes discussions of the Celtic kingdoms and the significance of Christianisation. Part Three brings the history of the Celts up to the present, covering the assimilation of the Celts within the national cultures of Great Britain, France and Ireland. Included in this consideration are the suppression of Gaelic, the declines, revivals and survivals of languages and literatures, and the histories of Celtic culture. The book concludes with a discussion of the recent history of the meaning of ?Celtic? and an examination of the cultural legacy of the Celts in the modern era.Key featuresThis second edition features updated material throughout, drawing upon research from 2000-2016Includes archaeological, historical, literary and linguistic evidenceCompares Celtic to Germanic culturesExamines the cultural legacy of the Celts in the modern era 606 $aCelts 606 $aCivilization, Celtic 615 0$aCelts. 615 0$aCivilization, Celtic. 676 $a909.04916 700 $aMaier$b Bernhard$f1963-$0803644 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910795633303321 996 $aThe Celts$93826116 997 $aUNINA
