Publisher's Synopsis
Signe Anita Fuchs Mythology of the Celts A comprehensive overview Signe Anita Fuchs is an academic painter, and PhD historian and geographer. Since her youth, she is fascinated by the Celtic mythology, which also motivated her to look closely into the Irish - Gaelic language. By 2012, she published in e-book format "The Ancient People" and "With Harp and Sword," two historical novels from the Celtic era, as well as "The Powers of Annwn," a paraphrase of the Mabinogi, the collection of Welsh mythology, which are available in German language since 2013 by Amazon Create Space as paperbacks. In this book, she now gives an insight into the rich source material that inspired her as a writer and as a visual artist. The work contains comments about the Irish and the Welsh pronunciation and these three chapters: "The Gaelic - Irish sagas and the world of the gods," "The Britannic - Welsh - Breton myths" and "The Druids," as well as an extensive bibliography. The text is brief, organized systematically, easily comprehensible and therefore for students, researchers and all interested readers alike well suited.
