Romanticism, Marxism, pre and post war German theology, non-realism
and the nineteen sixties death of God movement, and now many
contemporary writers around the world- they have all reshaped our
ideas about God, giving it the rich diversity of experience and
expression it comprises today. Tracing the history of the key idea
in Western thought from its origins through to the present day,
this is the story of the intellectual journey that remade God in
the image of man, so that he might become one of us.

An anthology with contributions from nineteen writers, The Goddess
in America is a book that identifies the enduring experience of
Goddess Spirituality through a four-part discussion focused on the
Native Goddess, the Migrant Goddess, the Goddess in relation to
other aspects of American culture (Feminism, Christianity,
Witchcraft etc.) and the Goddess in contemporary America.
The origin story of every culture contains a description of
animism; humans in direct relationship with the land and, through
the reciprocity of that connection, evolving together. The
livelihood of humans and Nature is intertwined. If one ails, so
does the other. History is littered with stories of losing that
connection, and the toll this takes in the form of humans against
each other, humans against Nature. Between colonization,
conscription into the Church, imperialization, and
industrialization, we have created systems of destruction that have
decimated our relationship to the land, and to each other. From
within these systems institutionalized racism, sexism, and all
aspects of 'othering' became embedded in our political and social
structures. As modern pagans, we recognize the need to tear down
these structures and build supportive, inclusive new ones. Our
spiritual paths are Nature-based and Ancestor-honoring, the rituals
of which heal land wounds and ancestral trauma, to create sacred
recovery and activism for all. This anthology presents modern pagan
activists working through their spiritual lines to do better.

Paganism 101 is an introduction to Paganism written by 101 Pagans.
Grouped into three main sections, Who we are, What we believe and
What we do, twenty topics fundamental to the understanding of the
main Pagan traditions are each introduced by essay and then
elaborated upon by other followers and practitioners, giving the
reader a greater flavor of the variety and diversity that Paganism
offers. With introductory essays from leading writers such as Emma
Restall Orr, Mark Townsend, Brendan Myers, Jane Meredith, Alaric
Albertsson and Rachel Patterson and with supporting vignettes from
those at the heart of the Pagan community, Paganism 101 offers a
truly unique insight.
In the sixty years following the publication of Gerald Gardner's
Witchcraft Today, new paths have appeared, and older ones emerged
out of the shadow of repression and illegality, to express with a
new and more confident voice their beliefs and practice, and share,
with a steadily growing audience, their knowledge, their
certainties, their questions and their vision. This book is a
celebration of some of the many paths that Witchcraft/Wicca has
taken and of the journeys that people have embarked upon.
