The stories of druids, gods, and heroes from ancient Gaul to medieval Ireland and Wales are among the best European culture has to offer. But what can we really know about the religion and mythology of the Celts? How do we discover genuine pre-Christian beliefs when almost all of our evidence comes from medieval Christian authors? Is the concept of “Celtic” even a valid one? These and other questions are addressed ably in this short collection of papers by some of the leading scholars in the field of Celtic studies.

  • Celts Ancient and Modern: Recent Controversies in Celtic Studies
    Celts Ancient and Modern: Recent Controversies in Celtic Studies John R. Collis As often happens in conferences on Celtic Studies, I was the only contributor at Helsinki who was talking about archaeology and the Ancient Celts. This has been a controversial subject since the 1980s when archaeologists started to apply to the question of the Celts the changes of paradigm, which had impacted on archaeology since the 1960s and 1970s. This caused fundamental changes in the way in which we treat archaeological evidence, both the theoretical basis of what we are doing and the methodologies we use, and even affecting the sorts of sites we dig and what of the finds we consider important. Initially it was a conflict among archaeologists, but it has also spilt over into other aspects of Celtic Studies in what has been termed ‘Celtoscepticism’. In 2015–2016 the British Museum and the National Museum of Scotland put on exhibitions (Farley and Hunter 2015) based largely on these new approaches, raising again the conflicts from the 1990s between traditional Celticists, and those who are advocates of the new approaches (‘New Celticists’), but it also revived, especially in the popular press, misinformation about what the conflicts are all about. Celtoscepticism comes from a Welsh term celtisceptig invented by the poet and novelist Robin Llywelin, and translated into English and applied to Celtic Studies by Patrick Sims-Williams (1998); it is used for people who do not consider that the ancient people of Britain should be called Celts as they had never been so-called in the Ancient World.

The Center’s First Year Tosnu maith-leath na hoibre (well begun is half-done)! So goes the Irish seanfhocal (proverb) and it comes to mind when we look back over the past year. Nearly 500 students have taken courses in our program and five have already received their Celtic Studies Certificates. We’ve had 52 participants in our Study Abroad programs, including our ‘Saints, Scholars and Scoundrels’ tour. Two of our students (Brian Hart and Aislinn Gagliardi) received Irish Fest scholarships, and put them to good use during their summer studies in Ireland. Twelve of our students spent three glorious weeks in Donegal, learning Irish and studying the unique local culture, some went digging up the Celtic past in Germany. At the end of the academic year, my co-director Bettina Arnold took a well-deserved sabbatical, part of which will be spent developing our relationships in the Celtic regions. We’re all grateful for the tremendous inspiration and Co-directors John Gleeson and leadership she has provided in our first year. While she’s away, Jose Lanters has Jose Lanters kindly stepped in as co-director. Renowned for her scholarship and teaching of Irish literature, Jose currently chairs our Advisory Committee. In late spring, we carried out a successful and groundbreaking experiment in Distance Learning. It involved students and faculty from our program at UWM, and the Irish World Music Centre at U of Limerick. Nancy Walczyk continues to develop our relationship with the University of Limerick.

  • “Thronging Students by the Fleetload”: the Early Echternach Manuscripts and Post-Whitby Relations Between Ireland and Anglo-Saxon England
    Brathair 12 (2), 2012: 6-16 ISSN 1519-9053 “Thronging Students by the Fleetload”: The Early Echternach Manuscripts and Post-Whitby Relations between Ireland and Anglo-Saxon England A. Joseph McMullen Ph.D. student in English and Celtic Literatures and Languages Harvard University [email protected] Abstract This paper explores what the early Echternach manuscripts can tell us about relations between Ireland and Anglo-Saxon England in the eighth century. Although the scriptorium at Echternach (in modern-day Luxembourg) was part of a continental monastic house, it was founded at the end of the seventh century by Willibrord, an Anglo-Saxon. Willibrord was educated in Ireland (likely at Rath Melsigi) and manuscript evidence suggests that this Irish monastery provided both personnel and manuscripts for the initial missionaries. This paper will discuss what the evidence provided by these early Echternach-affiliated manuscripts can tell us about Hiberno-Saxon relations. The evidence from the eighth-century Echternach scriptorium suggests a much more complicated relationship than simply the Irish influencing the Anglo-Saxons in England: instead we find a tri- lingual manuscript culture (Latin, Old Irish, Old English) with influences coming from both the Irish and English. This paper will then further explain what this culture of mutual appreciation, teaching, and learning (with an overall goal focused on missionary conversion and manuscript production) can tell us about Hiberno-Saxon scholarly cooperation. Résumé Cet article explore ce que les premiers manuscrits d'Echternach peuvent nous dire sur les relations entre l'Irlande et l’Angleterre Anglo-Saxonne dans le huitième siècle. Bien que le scriptorium d'Echternach (de nos jours en Luxembourg) fît partie d’une maison monastique continentale, il fut fondé à la fin du VIIe siècle par Willibrord, un Anglo-Saxon.
