Download or read book Ancient Celtic Symbols and Their Meanings written by D. Brewer and published by . This book was released on 2021-10-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celtic symbols were created by the Celts, a race of tribes, who lived in settlements across Europe, from Ireland to Turkey, notably during the Iron Age. Evidence of their culture reaches back further than 1200 BC. These people were thought to have a common language and shared systems of belief, despite living far and wide and they are believed to have been both traders and warriors. While they did not initially have a written language, they did create metal and stone work with patterns that are recognisable today as Celtic symbols. These shapes and patterns have been influenced by different religions, beliefs and cultures ever since, such as Druids and Christians. As a result, when we look at the symbols, there are often more than one variation of the same symbol, and similarly, often more than one meaning attached to it. This book is perfect for people new to the subject of Celtic symbology, with illustrations, relevant meanings and descriptions of the many myths and legends attached to them.

Download or read book Dragonslayers written by Joseph A. McCullough and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-03-20 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its fiery breath, scaly armour, and baleful, malevolent stare, the dragon became the ultimate symbol of evil and corruption in European folklore and mythology. Often serving as a stand-in for Satan, or the power of evil gods, dragons spread death and hopelessness throughout the land. Only heroes of uncommon valour, courageousness, and purity could hope to battle these monsters and emerge victorious. Those that did became legends. They became dragonslayers. The list of dragonslayers is small, but it is filled with great and legendary names. Hercules, Beowulf, Sigfried, and Saint George all battled to the death with dragons. Other heroes such as Cadmus, founder of the city of Thebes, Dieudonné de Gozon, the Knight of Rhodes, and the Russian warrior Dobrynya Nikitch might be less well known to western readers, but also fought and defeated dragons. This book retells the greatest legends of this select group of warriors, while examining the myth of the dragonslayer in a historical, mythological, and even theological context.
