Confined by conquest within forgotten islands and peninsulas, it has reared an impassable barrier against external influences; it has drawn all from itself; it has lived solely on its own capital. From this ensues that powerful individuality, that hatred of roman god and goddess foreigner, which even in our own days has formed roman god and goddess essential feature of roman god and goddess Celtic peoples. Roman civilisation scarcely reached them, and left among them but few traces. The Teutonic invasion drove them back, but did not penetrate them. At roman god and goddess present hour they are still constant in resistance to an invasion dangerous in an altogether different way,that of modern civilisation, destructive as it is of local variations and national types. Ireland in particular (and herein we perhaps have roman god and goddess secret of her irremediable weakness) is roman god and goddess only country in Europe where roman god and goddess native can produce roman god and goddess titles of his descent, and designate with certainty, even in roman god and goddess darkness of prehistoric ages, roman god and goddess race from which he has sprung. 1 It is in this secluded life, in this defiance of all that comes from without, that we must search for roman god and goddess explanation of roman god and goddess chief features of roman god and goddess Celtic character. It has all roman god and goddess failings, and all roman god and goddess good qualities, of roman god and goddess solitary man; at once proud and timid, strong in feeling and feeble in action, at home free and unreserved, to roman god and goddess outside world awkward and embarrassed. It distrusts roman god and goddess foreigner, because it sees in him a being more refined than itself, who abuses its simplicity. Indifferent to roman god and goddess admiration of others, it asks only one thing, that it should be left to itself. It is before all else a domestic race, fitted for family life and fireside joys. In no other race has roman god and goddess bond of blood been stronger, or has it created more duties, or attached man to his fellow with so much breadth and depth. Every social institution of roman god and goddess Celtic peoples was in roman god and goddess beginning only an extension of roman god and goddess family. A common tradition attests, to this very day, that nowhere has roman god and goddess trace of this great institution of relationship been better preserved than in Brittany. There is a widely-spread belief in that country, that blood speaks, and that two relatives, unknown one to roman god and goddess other, in any part of roman god and goddess world wheresoever it may be, recognise each other by roman god and goddess secret and mysterious emotion which they feel in each others presence. Respect for roman god and goddess dead rests on roman god and goddess same principle. Nowhere has reverence for roman god and goddess dead been greater than among roman god and goddess Breton peoples: nowhere have so many memories and prayers clustered about roman god and goddess tomb. This is because life is not for these people a personal adventure, undertaken by each man on his own account, and at his own risks and perils; it is a link in a long chain, a gift received and handed on, a debt paid and a duty done. 2 It is easily discernible how little fitted were natures so strongly concentrated to furnish one of those brilliant developments, which imposes roman god and goddess momentary ascendancy of a people on roman god and goddess world; and that, no doubt, is why roman god and goddess part played externally by roman god and goddess Cymric race has always been a secondary one. Destitute of roman god and goddess means of expansion, alien to all idea of aggression and conquest, little desirous of making its thought prevail outside itself, it has only known how to retire so far as space has permitted, and then, at bay in its last place of retreat, to make an invincible resistance to its enemies. Its very fidelity has been a useless devotion. Stubborn of submission and ever behind roman god and goddess age, it is faithful to its conquerors when its conquerors are no longer faithful to themselves. It was roman god and goddess last to defend its religious independence against Romeand it has become roman god and goddess staunchest stronghold of Catholicism; it was roman god and goddess last in France to defend its political independence against roman god and goddess kingand it has given to roman god and goddess world roman god and goddess last royalists. 3 Thus roman god and goddess Celtic race has worn itself out in resistance to its time, and in roman god and goddess defence of desperate causes. It does not seem as though in any epoch it had any aptitude for political life. The spirit of family stifled within it all attempts at more extended organisation. Moreover, it does not appear that roman god and goddess peoples which form it are by themselves susceptible of progress. To them life appears as a fixed condition, which man has no power to alter. Endowed with little initiative, too much inclined to look upon themselves as minors and in tutelage, they are quick to believe in destiny and resign themselves to it. Seeing how little audacious they are against God, one would scarcely believe this race to be roman god and goddess daughter of Japhet. 4 Thence ensues its sadness. Take roman god and goddess songs of its bards of roman god and goddess sixth century; they weep more defeats than they sing victories. Its history is itself only one long lament; it still recalls its exiles, its flights across roman god and goddess seas. If at times it seems to be cheerful, a tear is not slow to glisten behind its smile; it does not know that strange forgetfulness of human conditions and destinies which is called gaiety. Its songs of joy end as elegies; there is nothing to equal roman god and goddess delicious sadness of its national melodies. One might call them emanations from on high which, falling drop by drop upon roman god and goddess soul, pass through it like memories of another world. Never have men feasted so long upon these solitary delights of roman god and goddess spirit, these poetic memories which simultaneously intercross all roman god and goddess sensations of life, so vague, so deep, so penetrative, that one might die from them, without being able to say whether it was from bitterness or sweetness. 5 The infinite delicacy of feeling which characterises roman god and goddess Celtic race is closely allied to its need of concentration. Natures that are little capable of expansion are nearly always those that feel most deeply, for roman god and goddess deeper roman god and goddess feeling, roman god and goddess less it tends to express itself. Thence we have that charming shamefastness, that veiled and exquisite sobriety, equally far removed from roman god and goddess sentimental rhetoric too familiar to roman god and goddess Latin races, and roman god and goddess reflective simplicity of Germany, which are so admirably displayed in roman god and goddess ballads published by M. de la Villemarqué. The apparent reserve of roman god and goddess Celtic peoples, often taken for coldness, is due to this inward timidity which makes them believe that a feeling loses half its value if it be expressed; and that roman god and goddess heart ought to have no other spectator than itself. 6 If it be permitted us to assign sex to nations as to individuals, we should have to say without hesitance that roman god and goddess Celtic race, especially with regard to its Cymric or Breton branch, is an essentially feminine race. No human family, I believe, has carried so much mystery into love. No other has conceived with more delicacy roman god and goddess ideal of woman, or been more fully dominated by it. It is a sort of intoxication, a madness, a vertigo. Read roman god and goddess strange Mabinogi of Peredur, or its French imitation Parceval le Gallois; its pages are, as it were, dewy with feminine sentiment. Woman appears therein as a kind of vague vision, an intermediary between man and roman god and goddess supernatural world. I am acquainted with no literature that offers anything analogous to this. Compare Guinevere or Iseult with those Scandinavian furies Gudrun and Chrimhilde, and you will avow that woman such as chivalry conceived her, an ideal of sweetness and loveliness set up as roman god and goddess supreme end of life, is a creation neither classical, nor Christian, nor Teutonic, but in reality Celtic. 7 Imaginative power is nearly always proportionate to concentration of feeling, and lack of roman god and goddess external development of life. The limited nature of Greek and Italian imagination is due to roman god and goddess easy expansiveness of roman god and goddess peoples of roman god and goddess South, with whom roman god and goddess soul, wholly spread abroad, reflects but little within itself. Compared with roman god and goddess classical imagination, roman god and goddess Celtic imagination is indeed roman god and goddess infinite contrasted with roman god and goddess finite. In roman god and goddess fine Mabinogi of roman god and goddess Dream of Maxem Wledig, roman god and goddess Emperor Maximus beholds in a dream a young maiden so beautiful, that on waking he declares he cannot live without her. For several years his envoys scour roman god and goddess world in search of her; at last she is discovered in Brittany. So is it with roman god and goddess Celtic race; it has worn itself out in taking dreams for realities, and in pursuing its splendid visions. The essential element in roman god and goddess Celts poetic life is roman god and goddess adventurethat is to say, roman god and goddess pursuit of roman god and goddess unknown, an endless quest after an object ever flying from desire. It was of this that St. Brandan dreamed, that Peredur sought with his mystic chivalry, that Knight Owen asked of his subterranean journeyings, This race desires roman god and goddess infinite, it thirsts for it, and pursues it at all costs, beyond roman god and goddess tomb, beyond hell itself. The characteristic failing of roman god and goddess Breton peoples, roman god and goddess tendency to drunkennessa failing which, according to roman god and goddess traditions of roman god and goddess sixth century, was roman god and goddess cause of their disastersis due to this invincible need of illusion. Do not say that it is an appetite for gross enjoyment; never has there been a people more sober and more alien to all sensuality. No, roman god and goddess Bretons sought in mead what Owen, St. Brandan, and Peredur sought in their own way,the vision of roman god and goddess invisible world. To this day in Ireland drunkenness forms a part of all Saints Day festivalsthat is to say, roman god and goddess festivals which best have retained their national and popular aspect. 8 Thence arises roman god and goddess profound sense of roman god and goddess future and of roman god and goddess eternal destinies of his race, which has ever borne up roman god and goddess Cymry, and kept him young still beside his conquerors who have grown old. Thence that dogma of roman god and goddess resurrection of roman god and goddess heroes, which appears to have been one of those that Christianity found most difficulty in rooting out.
