Sydney University Press (Verlag)

All the studies in this book bring to their particular tasks an acknowledgement of the importance of religion in the worldview of antiquity and the Middle Ages. Their approaches reflect a critical turn in Celtic studies that has proved immensely productive across the last two decades.
Jonathan Wooding is Sir Warwick Fairfax Chair of Celtic Studies at the University of Sydney.
