Boyhood,
Growing Up Male : A Multicultural Anthology
Univ of Wisconsin 1998 Pages: 290
Price: $12.76
ISBN: 0299157547
From Booklist , 11/01/93: It was inevitable that a volume of prose and poetry
about growing up male would emerge from the men's movement. Most men's movement
books are filled with psychoanalysis and case studies, but here each man is asked
to reminisce thoughtfully on his formative years. For the most part, the entries
come from dysfunctional-family situations (the one fascinating exception is Terry
Kupers' "Schoolyard Fights," in which he muses on how he's big enough
to be the playground bully, but chooses to act as pacifist instead). Entries come
from all over the globe (of particular interest are the pieces by Nigerian Obi
Zikora and Filipino John Silva) and explore all sorts of subjects (dads with guns,
growing up gay, living with elderly people, and experiencing war as a child).
The lighter touch of the verse helps counter some of the angst-ridden prose pieces.
Finally, Abbott rightly suggests that the book be used in men's therapy groups
as a jumping-off point for verbalizing feelings about boyhood.

ISBN: 0786700858
After the runaway success of The Pendragon Chronicles, Mike Ashley brings together
further stories of heroism and virtue from the age of the Knights of the Round
Table, written by some of fantasy's bestselling authors, as well as famous names
from literature. The mediaeval Arthurian world of chivalry and knight errantry
is brought once more to life by this absorbing collection of stories. Including
Jane Yolen's "The Quiet Monk", Elizabeth Stuart Phelp's "The True
Story of Guenever", P.C. Wodehouse's "Sir Agravaine", Hilaire Belloc's
short novel, The Romance of Tristan and Iseult, and John T. Aquino's "The
Sad Wizard". There are brand new stories specially written for the collection
by Keith Taylor, Phyllis Ann Kart, Don Wilcox, Darrell Schweitzer, and Peter Tremayne,
as well as classic tales of gallantry and heroism from a great and bygone era.

The Chronicles
of the Holy Grail
Carroll & Graf 1996 Pages:
Price: $10.36
ISBN: 0786703636
A READERS COMMENTS: Good collection of new and rare reprint material. This
collection contains twenty-two stories, thirteen original to this volume, and
the others covering publications from 1849-1988. The book is set out to foollow
the Grail's chronology from its arrival in Britain, through the appearance to
Arthur's knights and their subsequent quest adventures, to its final revelation
to Lancelot. Appended are stories, as oposed to the earlier legends, taking place
after the grail vanishes, and even possible present day reappearances. The range
of authors and different periods of writing provide a wealth of variations on
the theme. Influences from the Welsh legends, Roman references and various prior
tellings add richness to the overall efect. Despite the underlying grail theme,
there's not the boredom of too much sameness between stories, thanks to the various
authorial voices and so much available source material. Recommended for the new
fiction, plus reprints of rare pieces, "The Chronicles of the Holy Grail"
should delight both fantasy readers and Arthurian scholars.

the irrepressible, Bedivere and Vortiporix, Blamor vs. Tristan, Brandiles vs.

to work for good among humans, opposed by the Furor (Woden). An encounter with
the unicorn--a spirit similarly earthbound--brings him to Ygrane, queen of the
Celts, and she sets him a task to find her king, a man seen in vision and fated
to be her love-match. Merlinus-Lailoken seeks and finds him: Theodosius, a stable

Towns,
Villages and Countryside of Celtic Europe
Indiana Univ Press 1992 Pages: 256
Price: US$50
ISBN: 0-253-31082-2
In setting out the landmarks in the history of settlement in Celtic Europe,
this book shows that the two millennia before the Roman conquest was a time of
great technological, social and economic progress. It was a period that saw the
development of timber architecture, the growth of rural crafts, the establishment
of stratified societies and the evolution of true urban centres. This is in contrast
to the commonly accepted picture inherited from the Roman authors who often portrayed
the Celts as barbarians. Francoise Audouze and Olivier Buchsenschutz, themselves
archaeologists, use primary archaeological information to explain the complex
processes involved in the transformation of Europe's rural landscapes. They bring
together specific examples and illustrations from many different countries and
present the various debates on how the accumulated wealth of archaeological evidence
is currently being interpreted. The result is an overview of the whole of Celtic
Europe at a period of rapid advancement that produced a remarkable level of cultural
unity in a vast region extending from the Danube to the Atlantic coasts. This
book provides a useful synthesis of many aspects of later European prehistory
and makes an important contribution to the study of the settlement structures
and social organization of the Celts

Hypericum
( St. John's Wort ) DEPRESSION
Prelude Press 1997 Pages: 200
Price: $6.36
ISBN: 0931580366
Midwest Book Review : Medical studies demonstrate that often a natural herb
"Hypericum perforatum" is as effective in treating depression as prescription
antidepressants. Hypericum is inexpensive (about 30 a day), available without
a prescription, and free of the side effects often associated with antidepressant
medications. Hypericum is derived from St. John's Wort (wort means "plant")
and has been used for thousands of years as a medicine. In Hypericum & Depression,
two noted psychiatrists report on research that could change the way depression
is treated in America explaining what depression is, how to know if one is depressed,
the medical effects of hypericum on depression, and where to find research-grade
hypericum (noting that not all hypericum supplements are alike). Hypericum & Depression
is enhanced with summaries of selected medical studies on the effect of hypericum
upon a state of depression. Hypericum & Depression is "must" reading
for anyone with an interest in alternative medicine and/or who suffers from chronic
depression.

The Mists
of Avalon
Del Rey 1987 Pages:
Price: US$14
ISBN: 0345350499
From 500 Great Books by Women; review by Gloria Bauermeister : "There
is no such thing as a true tale. Truth has many faces and the truth is like to
the old road to Avalon; it depends on your own will and your own thoughts, whither
the road will take you." The Mists of Avalon is a story of another time and
place. It's the legendary saga of King Arthur and his companions at Camelot, their
battles, love, and devotion, told this time from the perspective of the women
involved. Viviane is "The Lady of the Lake," the magical priestess of
the Isle of Avalon, a special mist-shrouded place which becomes more difficult
to reach as people turn away from its nature- and Goddess-oriented religion. Viviane's
quest is to find a king who will be loyal to Avalon as well as to Christianity.
This king will be Arthur. Gwenhwyfar, Arthur's Queen, is an overly pious, fearful
woman who successfully sways her husband into betraying his allegiance to Avalon.
Set against her is Morgaine of the Fairies, Arthur's sister, love, and enemy -
and the most powerfully believable person in the book - who manipulates the characters
like threads in a tapestry to achieve her tragic and heroic goals. The Mists of
Avalon becomes a legend seen through new eyes, with details, majestic language,
and haunting foreshadowing that hold the reader through its more than 800 pages

Crossing
the Circle at the Holy Wells ofIreland
Univ Pr of Virginia 1995 Pages: 141
Price: $19.57
ISBN: 0813915481
Even before the time of the Celts, Ireland was believed to be a land of power
that "welled up" from the earth in the form of bubbling springs and
healing waters. The myths and rituals surrounding these holy wells have been modified
through the centuries as pre-Celtic and Celtic rituals blended with Christian
traditions to form the combination of rites performed at these sites today. Drawing
on fifteen years of fieldwork and archival research, conversations with local
informants, and scrutiny of dozens of maps ancient and modern, the Brennemans
have written the first study of these wells that offers an in-depth interpretation
of their symbolism and their mythological and ritual origins. More than two dozen
photographs and a map of the wells cited in the text portray the authors' journey
throughout Ireland to recover the archaic patterns that link past and present,
pagan and Christian. Some of the wells photographed in the early years of their
research have become inactive, and some Celtic practices have disappeared, leaving
these photographs, in some instances, the only remaining record. Enhancing the
photographs and research are numerous tales about trees at the wells that when
cut will not burn, stones associated with the wells that when removed always return,
and trout living in the wells that when caught cannot be cooked. Drawing largely
on the work of historian of religions Mircea Eliade in interpreting these phenomena,
the Brennemans have developed an original concept, the "loric," that
is used to identify a particular form of power tied to and arising from a specific
locality. They then contrast the loric with the "sacred," a universalizing
and world-creating power. Complementing this theoretical treatment are insights
into the influence of St. Patrick and the Christian symbolism at the wells.

Price:
ISBN: 070831127X
The Merriam-Webster Encylopedia of Literature , 04/01/95: Culhwch also spelled
Kulhwch, Welsh Culhwch ac Olwen. Welsh prose romance (c. 1100), one of the earliest
known that treats Arthurian subject matter. It is a lighthearted tale that skillfully
incorporates themes from mythology, folk literature, and history. The earliest
form of the story survives in an early 14th-century manuscript called The White
Book of Rhydderch, and the first translation of the story into modern English
was made by Lady Charlotte Guest from The Red Book of Hergest (c. 1375-1425) and
was included in her translation of Mabinogion. The story uses the folk formula
of a stepmother's attempt to thwart her stepson. Culhwch, after refusing to marry
the daughter of his stepmother, is told by her that he shall never wed until he
wins Olwen, the daughter of the malevolent giant Yspadadden Penkawr. Because of
a prophecy that if she marries he will die, Olwen's father first tries to kill
Culhwch but then agrees to the marriage if Culhwch performs several perilous feats
and brings him the 13 treasures he desires. Culhwch is aided in several of his
adventures by his cousin Arthur and some of Arthur's men, including Kei (Sir Kay)
and Gwalchmei (Sir Gawain). Culhwch returns to Yspadadden with only part of his
goal accomplished, kills him, and marries Olwen.

A READER: This is a thought-provoking book which stands apart from all others
dealing with Celtic shamanism. Cowan offers detailed analyses on many different
aspects of the Celtic brand of mysticism; he clears up the "clowdiness"
that is often present when dealing with this complex system of symbology and myth.
A wealth of subjects are covered, from the traces of shamanistic practice we find
in the lives of Celtic heroes to the deeper significance of the Arthuran legends.
The most interesting part of the book for me was the section on the Sacred Wound,
a vital but mysterious part of shamanic initiation. This witty, energetic exploration
of the Celtic mystical experience is definitely a must have for all interested
in this genre.

Wm B Eerdmans Pub Co April 1996 Pages: 288
Price: 17.50
ISBN: 0802838081
Drawing on literary, mythological, legal, and historical sources, Peter Berresford
Ellis sets out to explore the reality behind the myriad images we hold today.
His Celtic Women provides a balanced and informed perspective on the position
of women in Celtic society and asks how much of this ancient culture has filtered
down through the ages. Ellis examines the concept of the "Mother Goddess"
origin of the Celts as well as the pantheon of women in Celtic mythology - from
Etain and Emer, and Macha and Medb, to Rhiannon and Gwenhwyvar (Guinevere). He
also discusses a wide range of important historical personalities. Although Boudicca
(Boadicea) is often cited as the most powerful historical Celtic female figure
- the one who led southern Britain in insurrection against the Romans - Ellis
shows that she was by no means unique. The results of Ellis's engaging study show
that Celtic society undoubtedly maintained an order in which women were harmoniously
balanced in relation to men. Beside the repressive male dominance of classic Mediterranean
society, the position of women in Celtic myth, law, and early history seems to
have constituted an ideal. Celtic women could govern; took prominent - sometimes
the highest - roles in political, religious, and artistic life; could own property;
could divorce; and were even expected to fight alongside men in battles. It was
not until the Celts' encounter and conflict with the alien values of the Roman
and Germanic cultures and the arrival of Western Christianity that the rights
of women began to erode.

The White
Goddess : A Historical Grammar of Poetic Myth
Noonday 1997 Pages: 512
Price: $12.00
ISBN: 0374504938
Poetry Editor's Recommended Book, 11/15/97: Robert Graves, the late British
poet and novelist, was also known for his studies of the mythological and psychological
sources of poetry. With The White Goddess: A Historical Grammar of Poetic Myth,
Graves was able to combine many of his passions into one work. While the book
is so poetically written that many of the passages amount to prose poems, it is
also frequently plot driven enough to feel like a novel, and it is rich with scholarly
insight into the deep wells of poetry. Especially fascinating is the chapter in
which Graves explores the ancient and ongoing practice of poets' invoking the
muse. Graves details the practice in both the Eastern and Western literary traditions,
and shows specific similarities and differences among Greek, British, and Irish
tales and myths about the muse. Graves has much to offer students of history and
myth, but poetry lovers will also be fascinated with The White Goddess.

In this authoritative account, Miranda Green unravels the truth about the Druids.
Examining the archaeological evidence, Classical commentaries and early Welsh
and Irish myths, she shows that the Druids were fully integrated into Celtic societyfulfilling
varied and necessary roles, both secular and religious. The Roman writers are
seen to reflect the double standards of an invading society: condemning as barbaric
the public sacrifice of enemies by the Druids while accepting as civilized their
own practice of slaughter for sport in the arena. Yet the Classical sources can
be used to help reveal the real Druids. We learn of their multiple roles as judges,
teachers, healers, magicians, philosophers, religious leaders and fomenters of
rebellion.

Women
of the Golden Dawn: Rebels & Priestesses

ISBN: 0-89281-607-4
The author, Mary K. Greer at http://www.nccn.net/~tarot/ , 04/06/97: A biography
of women who changed the world 100 years ago. Four women -- Irish revolutionary
Maud Gonne, artist and psychic Moina Bergson Mathers, theatrical producer Annie
Horniman, and actress Florence Farr -- formed the heart and soul of the Hermetic
Order of the Golden Dawn, meeting in the 1890s to practice magic and to work toward
spiritual growth. They then used their magic to change the politics, literature
and theatre of their time, heralding a "new age" and "a new woman."
I was first drawn to the Golden Dawn women through their work with Tarot. Gaining
access to rare books, private collections, and original letters and journals,
I spent six years in research and writing. My whole life, it seems -- as a college
professor and director of women's studies, a Literature and Theatre major, and
tarot reader, priestess and astrologer -- was a preparation for this exhilarating
task of reclaiming our magical foremothers. With what I learned from their lives
I gleaned twelve self-empowering principles that we can effectively use to achieve
our own personal goals. Community Endeavor wrote that this book "can be read
as an elegant novel, a woman's history and feminist source book, or an introduction
to the magical arts." This is exactly what I had hoped to accomplish.

A rich and sweeping novel of intrigue and passion, honor and betrayal, Into
the Path of Gods is the first installment of the spectacular Macsen's Treasure
series. Set in the turbulent twenty-five year period leading to Arthur of Britain's
reign, it is the story of Marcus ap Iorwerth, Welsh spy and master of disguise,
who seeks to avert the age-old bane of warfare by sabotaging mercenary invaders
and creating ways to unite feuding British political rivals. In the course of
his work, he discovers his true love, Claerwen, an ethereal woman with the gift
of visions who comes to share his dream of a united Celtic Britain, free of barbarians.
Together they become ensnared in a dangerous conspiracy involving the priceless
sacred symbols of Britain's high kings, known collectively as Macsen's Treasure.
Using wits, tenacious courage and just plain audacity, they help clear the path
for the rightful high king to take the crown of Britain, and in the process, discover
the truth of Macsen's Treasure.

Price: 13.56
ISBN: 0713724633
From Booklist , 12/01/94: This well-packaged new book on the Celts puts substantive
academic research into popular terms. King's focus is on the wheel of the Celtic
year with its cycle of four celebrations: the fire feast of Lughnasa; the still-celebrated
festival of the dead, Sarnhain (Halloween); the feast of the herds at Imbolc;
and the wild abandon of Beltane, with its maypoles. Corollary to those festivals
are the equinoxes and solstices, observed by the Celts in less ritualized fashion
but important to them as markers in the agricultural year. Besides the annual
cycle, King describes the religious underpinnings of the festivals, the functions
of the druid priests and bards, relationships to other mythologies, and the influence
of historical assimilation and migration on what we know of Celtic myth. A good
resource, well written and well researched. Copyright© 1994, American Library

Scent
: The Mysterious and Essential Powers of Smell
Kodansha 1994 Pages:
Price: $10.40
ISBN: 156836024X
"All my genius resides in my nostrils," claimed Friedrich Nietzsche.
Now comes a splendid new voice to bear him out - Annick Le Guerer. In this enchanting,
erudite, and highly readable exploration of all things olfactory, she investigates
the uses and properties of scent through the ages in relation to magic, myth,
religion, sex, discrimination, philosophy, and medicine. From the perfumed rituals
of ancient religions to the saintly "odor of sanctity"; from the aromatic
cures of the Middle Ages to the black market for spiceladen mummies; from Proust's
tea-dipped madeleine to our contemporary "odorphobia," Le Guerer explains
and documents the mysterious and essential powers of smell: to attract or repel;
call up deep memory; induce lust, love, hunger, even trance. Recalling by turns
Patrick Suskind's Perfume and Diane Ackerman's A Natural History of the Senses,
Scent is an enchanting melange of storytelling and scholarship, a sensual journey
across boundaries of time and culture that touches on universal myths and intimate
desires.

Christianity

ISBN: 0300071485
The book jacket states: "...pagan practices persisted in the Christian
church for hundreds of years after Constantine proclaimed Christianity the one
official religion of Rome...the two religious systems were both vital during an
interactive period that lasted far longer than historians have previously believed...
pagan beliefs were not eclipsed or displaced by Christianity but persisted or
were transformed...This fascinating book also includes new material on the Christian
persecution of pagans over the centuries...the stubbornness of pagan resistance;
the difficulty of satisfying the demands and expectations of new converts; and
the degree of assimilation of Christianity to paganism."

Mallory, JP
In Search
of the Indo-Europeans : Language, Archaeology, and Myth
Thames & Hudson 1991 Pages:
Price: $19.95
ISBN: 0500276161
A READER: Mallory's work uncovers and states clearly all that is currently
known about the Indo-European languages that include English. Using every manner
of research from Archaeology to Religion, Mallory sets out to explain the common
links and evolution of the Germanic (including English), Celtic, Latin, Slavonic,
Illyrian, Albanian, Greek, Armenian, Tocharian, Anatolian, Illyrian, Iranian,
Dardic, and Indo-Aryan branches of this vast family of languages. The importance
of this work concerns more than half of mankind. Mallory pieces together the still
not fully understood puzzle of the early origins of our mysterious Indo-European
forebears and has reached the pinacle of his field thus far.
Markale, Jean
King of
the Celts : Arthurian Legends and Celtic Tradition
Inner Trad. 1993 Pages: 312
Price: $11.96
ISBN: 0892814527
From Booklist , 03/01/94: Markale opens with an argumentative introduction
about historians' general reluctance to deal with myths and oral traditions. She
moves directly into a discussion of how Arthurian lore in the medieval world was
comcreated by ardent and undiscriminating propagandists of the courtly nobility
who misappropriated Celtic legends and in the process betrayed and ridiculed them.
Her survey of Arthurian legendry in Celtic history purports that through such
Celtic notions of kingship, especially the king's obligation to the people, his
role was clarified as more than one of personal gain or divine right. For serious
students of Arthurian legends and history.
