TTC THE CELTIC WORLD MEDBAY

TTC is about the Celtic World. Much of what we knew about the Celts has changed since the 19th century, following the surge of interest and pride in Celtic identity. Get to know the Celts from the people who almost defeated Julius Caesar to the people who didn’t worship at Stonehenge.

The story of the Celtic-speaking peoples, whose art, language, and culture once spread from Ireland to Austria, is told in The Celtic World. This series of 24 enlightening lectures explains the traditional historical view of who the Celts were, then contrasts it with brand-new evidence from DNA analysis and archeology that completely changes our perspective on where the Celts came from. European history and culture has been profoundly affected by the Celts, from the myth of King Arthur to the very map of the United Kingdom.

The Director of the University Honors Program and Clinical Assistant Professor of History at The Catholic University of America has a wealth of historical expertise and guides you through each topic with ease as you uncover what we once thought it meant. Professor Paxton has an engaging, often humorous delivery that blends perfectly with the facts about the Celts. The literary and artistic traditions of the ancient Celts have been preserved and deliberately revived by their descendants. All aspects of Celtic life, past and present, are addressed by Professor Paxton, who demonstrates a masterful knowledge and carefully separates fact from myth at every turn. You can take a ride through history to learn more about yourself.
