Keltic Researches: Studies in the History and Distribution of the Ancient Goidelic Language and Peoples (Classic Reprint) - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Explore the history, reach, and identity of the ancient Goidelic world through new linguistic and cultural insights.
This scholarly work examines how Goidelic-speaking communities spread across Europe and how language connects people, politics, and place. It weighs clues from tribes, place names, and historical records to trace contact between Britons, Picts, and Goidelic peoples, from the Danube to the Iberian fringe and beyond. The book also clarifies how the language test relates to race and community, not strict biological stock, shedding light on early Irish, Welsh, and Scottish Gaelic identities.
- Learn how Goidelic languages traveled, blended, and endured across a broad map of ancient Europe.
- Discover how scholars connect Irish, Pictish, and Belgae histories through linguistic and geographic evidence.
- Understand key linguistic findings, including how the loss of certain sounds occurred at different times in Goidelic.
- See how appendices and notes support the core arguments with supplementary data and contextual evidence.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a groundbreaking study of the Pictish language, spoken by the enigmatic Picts who inhabited what is now Scotland for centuries. The author demonstrates that Pictish was not, as previously thought, a unique language isolate, but rather a Goidelic language closely related to Irish. This discovery has major implications for our understanding of the history and culture of the Picts and challenges long-held assumptions about the linguistic and ethnic makeup of ancient Britain. Exploring evidence from inscriptions, place names, and literary sources, the author provides a wealth of evidence to support their claims, shedding new light on one of the most fascinating and mysterious peoples of ancient Europe. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330792179_0
