Description

Explore a deep historical analysis of European identity with The Celts: The Construction of a Myth by Macmillan. While many view the Celts as a continuous group with shared racial and linguistic roots from the Iron Age to the modern era, this book offers a different perspective. It examines how the concept of the Celts has been shaped over two thousand years. Instead of a single genealogical line, the text suggests that the Celts have often been defined as the 'other' in relation to the dominant cultural and political traditions of Europe. This perceived difference is what creates the sense of continuity and substance often attributed to them. This book is an essential read for those interested in social and cultural history, multicultural studies, and the ways in which historical identities are built and understood.
