Opis

The parables contained in this book focus on the unique Celtic spirit, covering themes that include love and hate, wisdom and folly and life and death. The examples are drawn from Victorian books and offer a new angle on established Celtic themes.

This collection of stories, meditations, poems and prayers evokes the authentic spirit of Celtic Christianity. Capturing the atmosphere of parables passed down through generations, it shows the human warmth, respect for the natural world and robust, down-to-earth qualities for which Celtic spirituality is so greatly valued. With its rich treasury of material - most of it previously unavailable in modern editions - Celtic Parables offers a fresh, lively introduction to the Celtic world.
