Academic approaches to studying magic and the occult: examining scholarship
into witchcraft and paganism, ten years after Ronald Hutton's The Triumph of
the Moon
A collection of essays edited by Dave Evans and Dave Green
Contributions by: Ronald Hutton, Amy Hale, Sabina Magliocco, Dave Green,
Henrik Bogdan, Phillip Bernhardt-House, R.A. Priddle, Geoffrey Samuel,
Caroline Tully & Dave Evans
Ten years on from the groundbreaking Triumph of the Moon: A history of
Modern Pagan Witchcraft by Professor Ronald Hutton, a selection of worldwide
scholars, some 'big names; some newer in the field, with nearly two
centuries of hands-on pagan research experience between them, present a
collection of researches inspired by, deriving from or just celebrating the
immense impact of that seminal book. The topics cover many historical
periods, many academic disciplines and it provides a wealth of information
of use to academic scholar and interested freelance reader alike. Includes
an extended essay by Ronald Hutton on the history of such scholarship, the
state of it today and some of his thoughts for the future.
"Those engaging in Pagan Studies, provided that they speak and write in
sufficiently public a manner, are inevitably going to mould the traditions
that they are studying. Whether they are concerned with the history of forms
of contemporary Paganism, or with their present nature, their work is going
to have a lasting and continuing impact on the identities which Pagans
assume and embody, and the manner in which they relate to society as a
whole. I hope that this book will be read by people within the university
system, and also by both Pagans and curious general readers: and my most
important message is that all of them matter to the way in which Paganism is
to develop in the next few decades, and probably for much longer: we are all
weavers of the tapestry of time"
- Ronald Hutton
many thanks
