Ирландские мифы. От Племен Богини Дану и Кром Круаха до кельтских сумерек и Самайна

The tribes of the Goddess Danu, Tuatha Dé Danann, the inhabitants of the hills - all these names conceal the mysterious deities of ancient pagan Ireland. Over the centuries, they have changed forms and names many times because people - both in Ireland and beyond - could not escape the power of their enchantment. Oxford lecturer and medievalist Mark Williams describes the fate of the immortal Irish deities through fascinating and sometimes whimsical stories: from ancient cults to medieval sagas, romantic lyricism of the 19th century, and finally, modern mass culture.
