The Forgotten Faith: the witness of the Celtic Saints [Paperback]

Anthony Duncan (Author)

Book Description

May 15, 2002
Celtic Spirituality is the "Forgotten Faith" of the West. It is essentially joyful and holistic and holds together the two basic human faculties of reason and intuition. There is no "airy-fairy" mysticism in it (true mysticism is anything but that!) and there is no spirit-numbing rationalism either.

The Celtic Saints were intuitives whose feet were very firmly planted on the ground. It is their equilibrium as human beings that gives much of their appeal, and in this, as in the holiness their lives display, they are Christlike.

This book examines the lives of the Celtic Saints and the sacred places in the landscape that have become associated with them.

It also includes directions to some of the holy sites.
