The Religion of the Irish Celts
Celtic Paganism, Christianisation and Celtic Christianity
The paper explores the resurgence of old Celtic religion and traditions in recent decades, highlighting their unique relationship with Christianity. Rather than focusing on differences, it emphasizes the similarities that fostered a symbiosis known as Celtic Christianity. This adaptability and assimilation are illustrated through Celtic history, particularly during the Roman Empire and the period of Christianization. The study provides insights into how these cultural dynamics have shaped the identity and practices of Celtic spirituality.
