About this HTML presentation
This Shipslides page presents Celtic Mythology as an interactive HTML presentation deck in the Mythology catalog with 30 slides. The share page keeps the uploaded deck sandboxed while exposing readable context, topics, and a slide outline for viewers and search engines.
The Celts had no scripture. Their priestly class — the druids — taught the gods orally and would not commit the doctrines to writing. So when Christianity arrived, the old religion did not survive in its own voice; it survived in the manuscripts of monks who recorded the stories anyway, half as literature, half as catechism's negative. Key sections include: The Celtic Otherworld.; Opening What survived the saints.; Chapter I Who the Celts were.; Chapter II The four Irish cycles.; Chapter III The Tuatha Dé Danann.; Chapter IV Cú Chulainn — the hound of Ulster.; Chapter V The Battles of Mag Tuired.; Chapter VI Fionn mac Cumhaill and the fianna.; Chapter VII The Mabinogion.; Chapter VIII The Welsh Arthur..
