The fundamental thesis of the present work is that Celtic heritage survived and outlived its immediate cultural context and integrated into various cultural texts, lived on well into the 21st century. Celtic culture’s survival through all these centuries is a manifestation of cultural continuity which enables the understanding of cultural practices, general codes, and signs. The cultural knowledge of correctly interpreting conventions, traditions, and social consciousness and the realization of the ideologically driven misinterpretations and simplifications are essential to comprehend the fundamental processes of cultural continuity. It is the premise of cultural survival and its counter-ideological responses that I wish to structure my thesis around.
