A fun class covering a wide range of connections between Irish and Welsh/Brythonic mythology and deities.

• Cognate deities
  
• Parallel stories
• Visiting the neighbours

Like many Celtic polytheists, I began with an interest in Irish myths and deities. I’ve never lost that interest, but my personal journey has led me to be just as interested in the gods of Britain, and Their stories via the Romano-British archaeological record, Scottish folklore, and early Welsh literature. Although there are important differences in the history and mythology of the two islands, there are also many fascinating connections and similarities.

It is often difficult to say with certainty which of these similarities are due to contact and borrowing, and which are due to a common ancient heritage. Coming to a decision about these questions is not going to be the focus of this class. Instead, we will just enjoy what we find, and some of the evidence we encounter may help you to at least make better informed guesses!

What to expect from this class:
Reading: There will be a suggested reading/video viewing list for the class, but no reading assignments.

Weekly online class includes – my presentations, Q&A sessions, moderated discussions. Classes usually last around 90 minutes.

Access to class recording if you need it. (Recordings may not always include class discussions, but will always include all presentations.) I strongly encourage you to attend the Zoom sessions if you possibly can, but there's no need to apologise if you're unable to do so.

Weekly notes. You will receive these as a PDF after each class. These will include:

• Important points and graphics from the presentations
• links or citations for any texts referenced in the presentations
• links and citations to further reading on the topics covered, which you can follow up on, if you wish.
