A Dissertation Upon The Druids is a book written by M. Esaias Pufendorf and published in 1886. The book is a detailed study of the ancient Celtic religion and its practitioners, the Druids. Pufendorf begins by exploring the origins of the Druids and their beliefs, including their reverence for nature, their use of divination, and their belief in reincarnation. He then examines the role of the Druids in Celtic society, including their influence on politics, law, and education. Pufendorf also delves into the rituals and practices of the Druids, including their use of sacred groves, their sacrifices, and their religious festivals. He provides a detailed analysis of the Druidic calendar and its connection to the cycles of nature. The book concludes with an exploration of the decline of the Druids, their suppression by the Roman Empire, and their eventual disappearance from history. Overall, A Dissertation Upon The Druids is a comprehensive and scholarly examination of one of the most fascinating and mysterious religious traditions in history. It is an essential read for anyone interested in Celtic culture, ancient religions, or the history of Western civilization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
