Yes, and to Malcolm's historical explanation I would add a hearty amen to his opening remark on the "meaningless" (but all too power-laden!) way that the word "celtic" is currently employed. It seems as if anything from the British Isles is seen as part of an applaudable folk tradition, it gets thrown into this "preapproved" category, whether it belongs there or not... So I'm very interested Eliza Carthy's efforts to redirect the spotlight .... |
