Summary: Legacies from a Free Celtic Europe, the fifth book in Jacqueline Widmar Stewart’s Hidden Womenseries, takes readers on a historical journey along ancient migration routes and through pre-Christian archaeological sites in the Celtic lands spanning Europe, back to times and places when women were honored as equals. Venerated as scientists, warriors and gateways to future generations, women have been targeted by attackers like imperial Rome exactly for that reason – because of their key importance to their domains.
When imperial Rome invaded Celtic lands, many were enslaved, many were killed and some fled. When under attack, families first try to hide their women and then often flee their homelands to protect them from brutal, dehumanizing dangers of male autocratic attackers. Today Ukraine and Iran face these same perils.
What has happened in the author’s own family reads like a playbook for dictators’ takeovers, but it also shines like a beacon for beleaguered women. Lost freedom and equality can be regained.
