*Features* Cover Type: Paperback with 277 pages Published by: Maynooth Monographs 2000 Written in: English ISBN 10 Number: 1870684109 ISBN 13 Number: 978-1870684101 *Reader Reviews* This is a "must-read" for anyone interested in early Irish history, Irish/Celtic mythology, and in particular the transition from paganism to Christianity in Ireland. McCone demolishes the notion that the Irish sagas are accurate guides to ancient Celtic beliefs, and shows how supposedly "pagan" elements in early Irish writings have more to do with the Bible than with myths from the pre-Christian period. Early Irish literature was written largely by Christians for Christians, despite the widespread assumption that it preserves real pagan beliefs and practices. Back To Top
