- I cannot believe it really happened-- I had always dreamed of interviewing the legendary Professor Ronald Hutton, whose books I've been reading and siting for my work for the better part of twenty years. I was so incredibly nervous throughout the whole of this interview, but Prof. Hutton was so amazingly generous with his time, and I never thought that forty minutes could fly so fast. Many thanks to him for his graciousness, and to everyone who sent along questions-- and apologies to those whose questions we did not get to! Hopefully we'll get to them another time.
I wholeheartedly recommend all of Prof. Hutton's books, but especially The Stations of the Sun, Queens of the Wild, The Druids, Blood and Mistletoe, Triumph of the Moon, The Witch, and the Rise and Fall of Merry England, which are all available here: www.amazon.com...

I love how the man often sits afront an empty bookcase the knowledge is in him.
Professor Ronald Hutton is, in my opinion, a British National Treasure.
Happy to see he’s been awarded a C.B.E.
@@shelleysanders9666he so deserves that kind of award!
This is a lovely dialog, thank you, its cleared up so many questions that had formed around my research.
Glad it was helpful!
A real treasure from the UK, we love you Ronald!
Welsh stud here. Who is this woodland nymph with a smile that could untether the known universe? I must have her!
Extremely enjoyable, also extremely useful. Thanks for handling this interview so professionally 👍
@@thirdratecontent585 I was so nervous 😅 but Prof Hutton was very kind.
Just lovely! Prof. Hutton is always so very wise and very charming! :) Stations of the Sun is my fave too! xxx
He's the best! I hope he'll be back again!
Perfect viewing for Hallowe'en, sitting by the fire with a cup of tea. Love Prof Hutton and you did a great job interviewing him - thank you! 😊
Magic 🥰 Hope we can have him back soon!
He is fantastic, glad I found your channel!
Interesting and informative talk!
Prof Hutton managed to pop some of the assumptions and 'facts' I have about the Celts, and various myths and legends.
I knew the Gundestrup cauldron wasn't entirely Celtic, but assumed it was a mix of Dacian, Germanic, Indian, and Celtic influences. I was surprised to hear that it originally came from the Black Sea region so it was probably a Scythian item at first. Thanks for posting the video.
He did a talk about the cauldron on the gresham college channel. It was great!
Hello, you have only 100+ subscribers and yet you have a guest as esteemed as professor Hutton?!? Good for you, 🙌. Bravo 👏👏👏
I'd like to applaud your efforts...and I have, sooo...ummm...what's new? 😁😁😁
Peace 🙏

Nice! Thank you for posting.
Professor Hutton is the real McCoy. 🥳✨🤩
PS: I love that you displayed your exuberance for your guest and his scholarship & corpus via haberdashery! Brava! 👌
He's the best. I had to bring out the big guns. I have another frond headdress that's even bigger, but I didn't want to outdo his cravat.
Look at you go! 🎉
Always love listening to Dr Hutton. Such an enjoyable interview.
Any info on that "Small Gods" book referred to in the last 10 minutes would be appreciated.
You mean Small Gods by Terry Pratchett?
@@authormichellefranklinI think I heard Dr Hutton say "Michael Olding" or similar was the author. I'll keep looking.
Thank you so much for the response! I followed & shared this interview. Love your content :)
@@flygande_renOh! I think the book you're referring to is this one: www.amazon.com/Fairies-Demons-Nature-Spirits-Christendom/dp/1137585196 Thank you! Hope you enjoy the rest of the legends series!
@@authormichellefranklin TY! Will definitely enjoy the series.
Thanks.

😂 I got suggested this after watching Philomena Cunk interviews. Guess that algorithm is doing good things
I love Diane Morgan. Have you seen the Cunk on Christmas one?
@@authormichellefranklin
😂 Yeah, I just watched it last night
I had this added to my suggestions after watching some professor Hutton lectures on the Gresham College channel, looking forward to watching this interview.
Manufacured cultural heresay is fun. Enables us to frame any drive-thru world view we want.
5:59 Cat!
That's Domino 😅
The dagda is a Celtic god and he has a cauldron. So is this cauldron a later adaptation of the dagda since the cauldron is not Celtic and he is?
I thought the tree of life came from those west of Eire when their island sank an entered into Ireland, Celt is a 2500yo term for people in Marsaille the Keltoi living around the head of the Danube and also in the far west of Europe, have you read Alan Wilsons writings on the Two King Arthurs? :)
Hekataeus of Miletus first used the term Keltoi around 500bc, and then Julian Ceaser and many others used the term. So "celt" is in absolutely no way a modern term, it's at least 2,500 years old.
right, but they were not in Eire, this was my main point, corrected, thanks :)
Celts
The first recorded use of the name of Celts - as Κελτοί (Keltoi) - to refer to an ethnic group was by Hecataeus of Miletus, the Greek geographer, in 517 BC, when writing about a people living near Massilia (modern Marseille). In the 5th century BC Herodotus referred to Keltoi living around the head of the Danube and also in the far west of Europe.

No problem.
What do you mean "those west of Eire when their island sank and entered into Ireland"?
A myth?
Because I'm fairly sure there is not anything in the geological record of any islands sinking (anywhere), or any landmasses or islands crashing into another land mass and forming together in the geological timeline since Homo sapiens have become Homo sapiens. I mean like how India crashed into Asia to make the Himalayas, LONG LONG ago, and now they're connected.
You can see on Google Earth sunken islands west, yes myths, not many left now thanks to Catholics, Michael Tsarion in his Atlantis irish civilisation presentation spoek of them, theyre mentioned in other place too in Lebor Gabála Érenn, Nemdians, Fir Bolg, Tuatha De Denaan a few others

@FortressofLugh this youtuber also does alot and seems well researched, aswell as @survivethejive

I can only apologise to Prof. Hutton’s wife/partner… why? Because I have a huge crush on him. There… I said it. Soooorrryyyy. 😬
Shouldn’t Prof. Hutton be Sir Prof. Hutton by now?, and I’m Canadian we don’t even believe in things like Sirs
Agreed!
He’d have to be nominated be an upstanding member of society (shouldn’t be too hard) and then knighted by the monarch for services to either The Crown or the British Empire.
I do NOT like her low, fry voice.
It's so disturbing!
That's my voice. I don't know what you want me to do about it 😅
