Description

Explore the deep connection between historical myth and modern national identity with Mysticism, Myth and Celtic Identity by Routledge. This scholarly work examines how the mythical and mystical past informs the way nations imagine themselves. By building on concepts of invented tradition and national myths, the text investigates how narrative and fiction possess the power to shape identity within British and Celtic contexts. Readers will learn how different groups reinterpret or reimagine aspects of the past to create coherence for desired national groupings. This is especially relevant for groups seeking nationhood or the defense of their cultural status. The book offers a broad historical perspective, covering a wide sweep of time from prehistory to the present. This makes it a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in how history is used to build a sense of belonging and national character.
