Description
The Triumph of the Moon: A History of Modern Pagan Witchcraft This comprehensive study brings modern pagan witchcraft, also known as wicca, out of the shadows and into the light. Meticulously researched, the book provides a thorough account of an ancient religion that has spread across four continents. Ronald Hutton explores the evolution of wicca, from its origins in English folklore to its modern-day practices, highlighting the positive aspects of the religion, such as devotion to art, the natural world, and femininity. The author also examines the role of leading figures in English literature, who celebrated these aspects of wicca in their work, and presents compelling biographies of wicca's principal figures, including Gerald Gardner. By shedding light on the history and practices of wicca, this book will appeal to anyone interested in witchcraft, paganism, and alternative religions.
