Celtic Literatures
A shelflist is the record of the books in a library arranged in the order in which they appear on the shelves. It has traditionally served two main purposes: as an inventory record of the books in the library and as an indispensable tool for assigning new numbers to books that are added to the collection.
A Celtic Miscellany
Including works from Welsh, Irish and Scottish Gaelic, Cornish, Breton and Manx, this Celtic Miscellany offers a rich blend of poetry and prose from the eighth to the nineteenth century, and provides a unique insight into the minds and literature of the Celtic people. It is a literature dominated by a deep sense of wonder, wild inventiveness and a profound sense of the uncanny, in which the natural world and the power of the individual spirit are celebrated with astonishing imaginative force. Skifully arranged by theme, from the hero-tales of Cú Chulainn, Bardic poetry and elegies, to the sensitive and intimate writings of early Celtic Christianity, this anthology provides a fascinating insight into a deeply creative literary tradition.
Memory and the Modern in Celtic Literatures
"Presenting work by some of the most distinguished scholars in their fields, Memory and the Modern in Celtic Literatures explores how Celtic literary traditions were both preserved and reconfigured in a post-medieval world. Poets and patrons engaging in fashionable poetic conceits; antiquarians rediscovering a literary heritage; bards defeating time itself with the language of utopia; satirists countering cultural hegemony with their sharp weapons of words; and writers revising tales of olden heroes to suit modern times and tastes - these are some of the protagonists in a complex drama of cultural preservation and change that plays out in the five case studies featured in this issue of the CSANA Yearbook."--BOOK JACKET.
