Delve into the origin of the Celts and how language reveals a shared Eurasian past, from ancient tribes to modern dialects.
This rigorous study surveys early ideas about Celtic origins and the wide spread of Celtic speech. It traces how ancient authors described Celtic groups, from Iberian Celts to the Scottish Gael, and explains how philology and language comparisons illuminate connections across Europe and Asia.
Readers will gain a framework for understanding how the Celtic world fits into the larger Indo-European family, including discussions of linguistic strands like Welsh, Gaelic, and Celtiberian. The work blends historical detail with linguistic analysis to show how names, grammars, and roots reveal common ancestry among European tongues.
Ideal for readers of linguistic history and classical studies who seek a thoughtful, non-fiction account of Celtic origins and language evolution.
