The Scriptorium

Updated 12/30/04Okay, here is a picture of some celtic dogs I have been working on:

I've been working with the design for about 4 years. I've recently used The Gimp to fine tune some of the curves to even some things out and make everything a little more uniform. I will be continuing to add a little color now and then, playing with some ideas. I'm anxious to share this as it is, so here you go! Enjoy!

There is so much Celtic Literature available, it's hard to know where to begin. I have a bibliography that I will put up on this site in the near future, but if there is a nonfiction subject you have an interest in, I can try to find some possible titles if you Email me

Stephen Lawhead's Pendragon Cycle, The Song of Albion Trilogy, Byzantium, and The Celtic Crusades Trilogy all are rich sources of Celtic Lore and Mythology, as well as culture and tradition. The reader should take note that these books are historical fiction, not fact, although his books are results of much research in the British Isles. For a good overview of the Celts, and a fantastic trip to the Celtic Otherworld, start here! Lawhead is a Christian author, and provides brilliant, almost prophetic insights in Christian Spirituality.

The Mabinogion should be your next stop in learning about Celtic Lore. These contain the old myths of the Celts.

Carmina Gadelica is an anthology of Celtic Poetry. Highly recommended!

Please submit any other fiction/nonfiction works that you would recommend!
