Summary "The Celtic Magazine, Vol I, No. IV, February 1876" by Various is a historical publication written in the late 19th century. This magazine includes a wide range of articles that delve into Celtic culture, history, and literature, with particular emphasis on topics relevant to Highland Scotland, such as the Ossianic controversy and various Gaelic customs. The content reflects the interests and concerns of the Scottish Celtic community during this period. The opening portion of the magazine features an article titled "The State of the Ossianic Controversy," which discusses the authenticity of the poems attributed to Ossian and their geological and geographic implications. The author, P. Hately Waddell, argues for the validity of Ossian's accounts as genuine historical and geographical documents, suggesting that they reveal truths about the regions described in the poems, particularly regarding the shifting levels of water in the Frith of Clyde. Waddell criticizes the scientific community's dismissal of Ossianic texts and urges a reassessment of their importance in understanding Scotland's ancient history and its landscape, calling for thorough investigation into these historical claims.
