 | | Harvard is justly proud of its contribution to the study of Celtic languages and literatures, having offered courses in the field for 100 years, and supporting the only department in the United States to offer advanced degrees in the subject. |
 | | The event was attended by faculty, staff, and students of the department, and members of the steering committee of the Friends of Harvard Celtic Studies, as well as Conor O'Riordan, the Irish consul general in Boston, and James Poston, British consul general. |
 | | While my wife and I both have Celtic origins, it's only been in recent years that many people with Irish and Scottish backgrounds have come to appreciate the importance of the Celtic tradition to Western civilization. |
