In addition, there are also poetic translations made from medieval Irish texts, such as the 14th century \u003cem\u003eBook of Ballymote\u003c\/em\u003e, which critique and explain all the extant variants of ogham. In vivid and lyrical language, and with surprising juxtapositions, these poems bring to life the communities, ecologies and traditions of Ireland and Scotland between the 4th and 6th centuries CE. In times of climate change, the vital ecological awareness of those communities is distilled and preserved in this important collection, which represents the culmination of over forty years of scholarship. A must-have for anyone with an interest in the Celtic history of Britain and Ireland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 140\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3 x 7.48 x 4.72 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 17, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52728252498227,"sku":"9781999971892","price":28.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/di9acHRrNUg2UVAwTzhLZ1NiYzM5UT09.webp?v=1763780440","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/the-great-book-of-the-woods-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
