Produktbeschreibung
Long before the Tuatha Dé Danann descended in their shimmering clouds, Ireland belonged to the Fomorians-ancient beings born of storm, sea, and shadow. The Fomorians: Irish Gods of Chaos and Sea plunges readers into the primordial world that shaped the island's earliest myths, revealing a race far more complex than the monstrous invaders of later legend. From Balor's death-eye blazing across the battlefield of Mag Tuired to the tragic, luminous figures like Elatha whose beauty confounded the age of heroes, this sweeping volume uncovers the forgotten cosmology behind Ireland's oldest adversaries. Drawing from mythic cycles, landscape memory, and the surviving medieval texts, the book restores the Fomorians to their rightful place as elemental forces-neither good nor evil, but the raw chaos against which civilisation first carved its identity. Rich in storytelling and grounded in deep scholarship, this book invites readers to stand on wind-torn cliffs, gaze into the Atlantic mist, and imagine the world as the ancient Irish once saw it: alive, volatile, and haunted by powers older than gods. Here, the battle between chaos and order is not a simple triumph but a cosmic tension that shapes creation itself. Whether you are new to Celtic mythology or building a serious library of Irish lore, The Fomorians offers a definitive, atmospheric journey into the shadowed origins of Ireland's mythic universe-where sea-kings rise, storm-giants brood, and the fate of the world hangs in the balance.
