About this listen

 Introducing: A Captivating Guide to the Gods, Sagas and Beliefs The Celts were a people who lived throughout central Europe from about the 500s BC to the AD 700s. In this audiobook, you will discover the various aspects of Celtic beliefs, gods, and sagas gaining a general overall picture of their culture. Their stories will be brought to life so all the details are more than merely a bunch of dry facts. We will enter their world and recreate it in as much detail as possible, from the little bit we know for certain, combined with ancillary facts from the various sciences. With each chapter, you will get a fanciful glimpse into the very personal world of the Celts. Each narrative is there to help you understand the Celtic viewpoint and why their beliefs held such powerful relevance in their society. Just some of the questions and topics covered in this audiobook include:
  • Celtic Animism
  • Universal Celtic Gods
  • Local Irish Celt Gods
  • Local Gallic Celt Gods
  • Celtic Sagas: The Cycles
  • Celtic Beliefs: Animal and Human Sacrifice
  • The Wicker Man
  • Celtic Beliefs: Reincarnation
  • Celtic Beliefs: Matriarchy
  • And much more!

Any additional comments?

Interesting retelling using more modern language/attitudes. I really like that it was simple, yet very thorough. I felt like I learned a lot and wanted to keep listening each time.

Any additional comments?

I am forever fascinated by Mythology and myths about gods and goddesses. I was so excited to learn more about Celtic Mythology. I didn't understand the whole thing had a historical significance. It was lively and I liked it so much. Supported!
