Word and body in antique Celtic texts Texts of Celtic antiquity show the diversity of interaction word and flesh. Support is installed on the development of self-body and the world as visible. Word is to realize how important power of magic influence is through appealing to higher realms. Nevertheless, axiology has the roots in the real world, to become aware through its bodily perception. Variability of the manifestations of this process allowed to join in the controversial integrity of holism and discrete representations of the world is born. Symbolic and semiotic possibilities of the ancient words sprouted in modern texts.
