| Abstract: | Chadwick makes detailed exploration of the differences and similarities in literary traditions of pagan Ireland and West Britain. She concludes that while Irish heroic literature originated and developed in Ireland, Irish magic had its background in Britain and reached Ireland across the Irish Sea. Only a few fragments of Irish heroic tradition seems to have reached Wales. A brief look at Early Christian literature 'indicates a close and long-standing unity of culture among the Celtic peoples around the shores of the Irish Sea.' | |||
