Synopsis
On the Study of Celtic Literature Arnold was influenced by his Celtic studies and wrote four lectures titled “On the Study of Celtic Literature” that appeared first in Cornhill Magazine in 1866 and in book-form in 1867. Arnold's lectures argue that the Celts are an Indo-European race and not therefore ‘unassimilable’; postulated the unification of the British Isles as an English-speaking people; defined the Celtic spirit, and all the while denying its capacity for self-government.
