Popis: This article examines the historical study of the Druids on the Isle of Man. It explores a variety of writers’ characterisations of the Druids and Man’s place in the ‘Celtic’ world from the sixteenth century to today, with an especial focus on John Toland. Although ideas about the Druids grew more from guesswork than clear evidence, they were crucial in defining Manx identity and history, with enduring effects into the present. Publisher PDF
