    Extractions: Celtic Mythology and Sacred Icons The Art of Rita Stynes Strow "In the inspired tradition of the illuminated manuscript, celtic artist Rita Stynes Strow recreates, sacred, spiritual, and mythical tales in her stunning iconic works." Mythology Collection Once the principles of Celtic designs are mastered, there are endless possibilities for creative innovation. I am always exploring these possibilities, for I find Celtic design has a strength and mystery not readily found elsewhere. I especially like to enhance biblical and mythological themes with the infinite variations of Celtic knotwork interlacing.

    Extractions: James MacKillop, Dictionary of Celtic Mythology (Oxford University Press, 1998; released in softcover by OUP, 2000) Now where was I? Looking for a book of Shetland fiddle tunes? Don't think so ... Seeking out the perfect winter ale? No, I don't think so ... Ah, I was looking for that dictionary of Celtic mythology so I could see what the tale of Balor was all 'bout. Oh, there it is! And that's where Balor figures in Irish myth ... Interesting! Do you have an excellent reference work on Celtic mythology? No? Shame on you! Now pay close attention because we're going to discuss the very best on the market James MacKillop's Dictionary of Celtic Mythology , which our good friends at Oxford University sent us twice. Yes, twice. The first time they sent the softcover edition, which me poor tired eyes, worn out from all-night reading of The Tain, couldn't handle. (Think really fuzzy type.) So Green Man requested the hardcover edition and the publicity folks sent it promptly off to us. In turn, our ever-so-kind editor sent it off in the post to his favourite fiddler. (And his package of bradan rost 'roasted salmon' in Scots Gaelic from Loch Fyne Oysters Ltd., is headed his way now.) I've had a number of not-so-great guides to Celtic mythology over the years, including several best not mentioned. So I won't. And don't tempt me to do so!

87. Arthurian Legend: The Link To Celtic Mythology
    The Link to celtic mythology. The generally accepted theory now is thatArthurian legend developed out of stories of celtic mythology.  
    http://www.infoplease.com/ce6/ent/A0856728.html
    
    Extractions: Encyclopedia Arthurian legend Formerly, it was thought that the Arthurian legend was the work of several inventive poets and romancers of the Middle Ages. The generally accepted theory now is that Arthurian legend developed out of stories of Celtic mythology. The most archaic form in which these occur in British sources is the Welsh Mabinogion , but much of Irish mythology is palpably identical with Arthurian romance. It is probable that traditional Irish hero stories fused in Britain with those of the Welsh, the Cornish, and the Celts of North Britain. The resultant legend with its hero, Arthur, was transmitted to their Breton cousins on the Continent probably by the year 1000. The Bretons, famous as wandering minstrels, followed Norman armies over Western Europe and used the legend's stories for their repertory. By 1100, therefore, Arthurian stories were well known even in Italy. Sections in this article:

    Extractions: The Celts were a collection of tribal people: strong, artistic, warlike, imaginative, uncluttered by civilization. The Celts challenged life head-on in the harshest of times and came away victorious. The Celts lived in the era of the birth of Christ although their tales are at the heart of medieval romances. They were people of strong convictions, relying on family ties for strength, seeking harmony with nature, aspiring for artistic excellence, setting a high value on loyalty and rewarding the brave with promises of a magical afterlife. The Celts had no territory or permanent province and were not much for recording their tales in written form. Therefore, they leave us to rely on word of mouth tales, archaeological remains, and accounts passed on by those having encountered the Celts. There were many Celt tribes scattered all over. They did not form cities. They usually set up farmsteads with small huts made of mud and wood. They farmed cattle, pigs, sheep, wheat and oats, or they became ironworkers and crafters. They were often times battles between rival Celt tribes. The two primary Celt languages were Gaelic and Brythonic or Cymric. The celts had four main festivals which divided their year, November 1 - festival of Samhain, May 1 - festival of Beltane, February 1 - festival of Imbolc and August 1 - the festival of Lugnasadh. The festival of Samhain was the beginning of the Celtic year and signified the beginning of winter. In the Christina world it was known as All Saints day or Halloween. This was a time for ancient sacrifices and a time to appease the spirits of darkness. The Imbolc festival marked the beginning of Spring. It was associated with the lamb and the importance of the lamb in maintaining the farming community. This festival would have many names over the years and would eventually come to be known as the feast of Candlemas. The goddess Brigid would be at the heart of this festival.

92. Animal Symbolism In Celtic Mythology
    Animal Symbolism in celtic mythology. Thus, animals symbolize the essenceof fertility and vitality in Welsh and celtic mythology.

    Extractions: Back to Ancient Religions A paper for Religion 375 at the University of Michigan by Lars Noodén, 22 November 1992 From: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~lars/rel375.html Animals in Celtic and Welsh mythology are tied in with fertility and vitality, because they are living, moving, and growing. They also provide vitality and continued life for the tribes through their meat, skins, and bones. In addition, they are a connection to the realm of spirits and the gods. This connection is seen through their use in the hunt, search for secrets and wisdom. Specific animals have specific associations depending on the characteristics of the type of animal. Birds, fish, serpents, deer, cattle, swine, and so on all tend to be used as symbols. Boars, fishes, serpents, birds, and herd animals are the most frequently described. In addition to representing fertility and wealth, boars symbolize courage and strong warriors (MacCulloch, 356) for they are strong, dangerous, and very hard to kill. Their appearance in dreams and visions also indicates warriors. Isolt's forewarning of the death of Tristan, a great warrior, came in a dream about the death of a great boar (Spector, 85-86). Statues of boars are occasionally found in the company of statues of armed warriors, (Powell, 176) further indicating an association between boars and warriors.

    Extractions: "Addicted to dreams and visions," was how the nineteenth century historians that rediscovered his work described Geraldus Cambrensis , (Gerald de Barry), author of the original twelfth century eyewitness accounts of the invasion of Ireland. When my wife Liz and I set out to write a story called The Voice ten years ago we never considered that the devoutly religious Cambrensis or his mystical dreams had any meaning to us. We were budding, hard-edged truth seekers - the first Americans to get a film crew into Soviet occupied Kabul after the invasion of Afghanistan in 1979.
