{"product_id":"2940012335906","title":"The Celtic Dragon Myth","description":"The Celtic Dragon Myth\u003cbr\u003eby J. F. Campbell and George Henderson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ur-myth of the struggle with the dragon, told in fine Celtic form with giants, mermaids and sidhe. (English and Gaelic)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe author of this work presents the Celtic version of the classic myth in a translation that reflects the spirit and beauty of the original Gaelic. The volume also includes The Geste of Fraoch and The Death of Fraoch, followed by The Three Ways and The Fisherman in the original Gaelic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBetween the years 1870 and 1884 the late Mr J. F. Campbell of Islay was repeatedly attracted by a series of legends current in the Highlands and Isles, which made special appeal to him as a storyologist. After reading a dozen versions of the stories, he found that no single title fitted so well as that of the Dragon Myth. \"It treats of water, egg, mermaid, sea-dragon, tree, beasts, birds, fish, metals, weapons, and men mysteriously produced from sea-gifts. All versions agree in these respects; they are all water myths, and relate to the slaying of water monsters.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs early indeed as 1862, while fresh from work, he had taken incidents from three versions and compared them with versions in other languages. Several journeys in the Highlands followed, as also in Japan, China, and Ceylon. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor additional information on publishing your books on iPhone and iPad please visit www.AppsPublisher.com","brand":"Apps Publisher","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47120998990064,"sku":"2940012335906","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940012335906_p0.jpg?v=1763567590","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940012335906","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
