2018 Reprint of 1945 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition. Not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. In this fascinating, scholarly study, author and folklorist Lewis Spence provides a researched account of occult beliefs and practices in Celtic Britain, including the origins of the Druids and their association with the Divine King, the Arthurian cults and the mystery of the Holy Grail, questions of second sight (the ability to envision the world of spirits), Celtic spells and charms, necromancy, prophecy, divination, the Celtic belief in reincarnation, mysticism, and many other topics. The author provides a wealth of information on mystical occurrences and magic feats, as well as fascinating discussions of the magical books of the Celts, Druidic spirituality and sacrificial practices, augury, the Celtic spirit world -- with its populations of banshees, leprechauns, brownies, and a host of lesser spirits -- and much more.
