HI GINGER :D
TIS ME, ALDER
anyway so i am on the HUNT for celtic apollo refs for my essay, and google is failing me so i have turned to tumblr to continue my hunt and i found you rambling about celtic apollo SO I MUST ASK-
may i be allowed a peek at thy findings? 👀
HELLO ALDER, THANK YOU FOR REACHING OUT
I've been compiling info on this topic for quite some time but I should ask - how good is your french? LMFAO I have a couple english essays handy - off the top of my head Sommer's 'Apollo Grannus and the Emperor Enchanted', 'M.Ahl's 'Amber, Avalon and Apollo's Singing Swan' and Prosper's "The Irreducible Gauls used to swear by Belenos - Or did they?" but I've definitely lost access to the latter in the switch between my laptops ;-; That said, there are also some really great books such as Miranda J Green's 'The Celtic World' that goes through some of her findings on these beliefs and cultural connections through time but for the most part, a rather lot of this information is in French or German (especially if you're looking for free information that's found its way onto the web)
I'm more than happy to share my resources with you through DM though :D If you're researching a particular cult or figure of Celtic Apollo (Apollo Grannus, Apollo Belenus, Maponos, even arguments made for an Apollo-Lugh figure) then please let me know and I'll see if I can find more pertinent articles as well!
All the best in your essay too <33 Just shoot me a message whenever
