Philosophy was invented by pagans. Yet this fact is almost always
ignored by those who write the history of ideas. This book tells
the history of the pagan philosophers, and the various places where
their ideas appeared, from ancient times to the 21st century. The
Pagan philosophers are a surprisingly diverse group: from kings of
great empires to exiled lonely wanderers, from devout religious
teachers to con artists, drug addicts, and social radicals. Three
traditions of thought emerge from their work: Pantheism,
NeoPlatonism, and Humanism, corresponding to the immensities of the
Earth, the Gods, and the Soul. From ancient schools like the Stoics
and the Druids, to modern feminists and deep ecologists, the pagan
philosophers examined these three immensities with systematic
critical reason, and sometimes with poetry and mystical vision.
This book tells their story for the first time in one volume, and
invites you to examine the immensities with them. And as a special
feature, the book includes summaries of the ideas of leading modern
pagan intellectuals, in their own words: Emma Restall Orr, Michael
York, John Michael Greer, Vivianne Crowley, and more
