Meid, Wolfgang
The Celts

Wolfgang Meid's aim is to explain concisely who the Celts were (and, to an extent, still are) and what we can discover about them from authentic records. This entails an account of when and where they first appear in history, and their fluctuating fortunes in Antiquity, the Middle Ages and in modern times. He discusses their cultural achievements and traditions to try to form a picture of the unique character which emerges from their varying manifestations. 184 Seiten mit einigen Farb- und s/w-Abb., gebunden (Innsbrucker Beiträge zur Kulturwissenschaft. Neue Folge; Band 2/Verlag des Instituts für Sprachwissenschaft der Universität Innsbruck 2010)
