Description

The Triumph of the Moon: A History of Modern Pagan Witchcraft This second edition of The Triumph of the Moon provides a comprehensive history of modern pagan witchcraft, extensively revising the first full-scale scholarly study of the subject. Ronald Hutton examines the nature and development of this religion, tracing its evolution from 1800 to the present day. The book delves into the lives of those who have shaped the modern pagan witchcraft movement, including village cunning folk, Victorian ritual magicians, and literary figures such as Romantic poets and writers. Hutton also explores the intersection of paganism with other cultural movements, including woodcraft, scouting, and Freemasonry. Through meticulous research, The Triumph of the Moon presents an authoritative insight into a fascinating aspect of modern cultural history, one that has attracted significant public attention but remains little understood.
