"Old Celtic Tales" by E. M. Wilmot-Buxton is a collection of mythological and folkloric stories retold from the Welsh "Mabinogion," crafted to engage readers with the enchanting world of Celtic heritage. Written in the late 19th century, the tales encapsulate various characters and adventures, grounding themselves in themes of magic, transformation, and the quest for love and knowledge. Central characters include Lir, who suffers the loss of his children, and the brave Prince Kilhugh, whose determination leads him on a quest for his beloved Olwen. The opening of the collection introduces the tragic tale of "The Children of Lir," where the children of the noble Lir are transformed into swans by their envious stepmother Eva and cursed to live for centuries until the sound of a Christian bell breaks the spell. Their story of resilience and longing sets the tone for the collection, highlighting themes of transformation and loss. Alongside this, the beginning hints at other tales featuring daring quests and mystical creatures, promising a rich tapestry of adventure that intertwines with the human experience, ideal for readers seeking to explore the deep roots of Celtic mythology.
