Exploring the World of the Druidsby Miranda J. GreenA book that is difficult to classify - a popular introduction to the history of Druidism whose scope necessitates a brief study, yet it is thoroughly up-to-date incorporating new ideas and research. Ten chapters look at the archaeology of the druids, celtic practices, the classical literature, sacrifices, prophecy, female druids in celtic society, sacred places and priests, druids in Irish mythology, the 18th and 19th century revivals, and modern beliefs. The bibliography is accompanied by a directory of modern druid organizations. 192p, 140 b/w and 51 col. illus. (Thames and Hudson 1997, Pb 2005) Browse other Early Medieval England books |
