Gods, Heroes, and Kings: The Battle for Mythic Britain
Fee, Christopher R. (Assistant Professor of English, Assistant Professor of English, Gettysburg College)
This book unearths the layers of the British Isles' unique folkloric tradition to discover how this body of seemingly disparate tales developed. The authors find a virtual battlefield of myths on which pagan and Judeo-Christian beliefs fought for dominance, and classical, Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, and Celtic narrative threads became tangled.
