Summary |
The Breton and His World - This is a Anthology of translations compiled to reveal the culture of Brittany. Despite their unwritten history, their unrecorded literature and their unsung heroics, theirs is a story of unrelenting efforts to retain a special social structure created through the years to meet their needs and aspirations. "Brittany is a land of the long ago. In no other place have the mores retained their archival aroma along with such a nobleness of ancient charm. On a promontory jutting out over the world, in the eternal twilight of the day, life is completely buried in a for of mystery; the souls ther are serious and resigned as though oppressed by the infinity of land and sky." |
