Irish Druids

Ireland, whether viewed from an antiquarian or an ethnological point of view, is one of the most interesting countries in the world. It is curious that its literary treasures have been so long neglected. The author of this book sheds light on Irish Paganism and Druidry. Throughout this book he discusses many of the concepts which later would be utilized by the Wiccan movement to construct Celtic Neo-Paganism.Contents:Irish DruidsWho Were The Druids?Welsh Or British DruidismIrish DruidismSt. Patrick and the DruidsOpinions On Irish DruidsIrish BardsIsle Of Man DruidismFrench DruidismGerman DruidismDruidical MagicNeo-DruidismDruidical BeliefDruidical MysticismEarly Religions Of The IrishIrish SuperstitionsIrish Magic, and Tuatha De DanaansIrish GodsIdol-WorshipSerpent FaithSun-WorshipFire-WorshipStone-WorshipAnimal WorshipThe Shamrock, and Other Sacred PlantsWell-WorshipHoly BellsIrish CrossesThe Sacred Tara HillRound Tower CreedOssian the BardThe Culdees of Druidical DaysThe Future Life, or Land of the WestAncient Irish LiteratureThe Lia Fail, or the Stone of Destiny
