Synopsis
This book contains an extensive collection of epic poems, translated from the oral tradition of the Gaels of Scotland. Originally composed as musical eulogies to great heroes, the poems were preserved by generations of bards and constitute some of the oldest and most significant works of Scottish literature. The author posits that these ancient poems provide unparalleled insight into the culture and customs of the ancient Celtic peoples of Europe, as well as the social and political organization of Iron Age Britain. The poems provide a window into a bygone era marked by bravery, honor, and strong communal bonds and demonstrate the enduring power of storytelling and cultural heritage.
