The Earth Goddess: Celtic and Pagan Legacy of the Landscape

Remainder mark and small owner name to bottom exterior page edges, otherwise clean, tight copy in mylar-protected dust jacket. 224pp.

From Publisher:

Return to a time when goddesses ruled, and places of worship existed around breastlike mountains, or within womblike caves. For women especially, these figures offer a refreshing alternative to patriarchal religions, but everyone will find the differences from current theologies thought-provoking. Plentiful historical detail and reproductions of artwork dedicated to female deities attest to their persistence -- even Christianity assimilated them. Pore through legends and myths, and encounter a diversity of saints, hags, and spring goddesses. Develop a itinerary for searching out your own goddess using the well-organized listing of towns, churches, and monuments as a guide.
