"A captivating introduction to Celtic magic, revealing its integration into daily life from antiquity to the Middle Ages, inviting readers to explore its mysteries through rituals and practical charms.
Druids and divination, curses and charms: the Celtic world was filled with magic and intrigue, but how and why did people practice magic? This guide travels through Celtic-speaking regions to explore the different ways people interacted with magic. Some sought aid through deities and dedications, while others used spells and curse tablets to wish ill on their enemies. With the medieval period, magic collided with popular religion, saints overtook the old gods, and witches, shape-shifters, and spirit battles became but tropes of medieval literature.
