Download or read book The Burning Of Bridget Cleary written by Angela Bourke and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-12-15 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1895 twenty-six-year-old Bridget Cleary disappeared from her house in rural Tipperary. At first, some said that the fairies had taken her into their stronghold in a nearby hill, from where she would emerge, riding a white horse. But then her badly burned body was found in a shallow grave. Her husband, father, aunt and four cousins were arrested and charged, while newspapers in nearby Clonmel, and then in Dublin, Cork, London and further afield attempted to make sense of what had happened. In this lurid and fascinating episode, set in the last decade of the nineteenth century, we witness the collision of town and country, of storytelling and science, of old and new. The torture and burning of Bridget Cleary caused a sensation in 1895 which continues to reverberate more than a hundred years later. Winner of the Irish Times Prize for Non-Fiction

Download or read book The Witch Book written by Raymond Buckland and published by Visible Ink Press. This book was released on 2001-11-01 with total page 934 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A look at Witches, Witchcraft and the Wicca tradition from the author of Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft From Abracadabra to Aleister Crowley to Gardnerian Witchcraft to Rosemary's Baby to sorcery and Zoroaster, The Witch Book by the late, great Raymond Buckland is unmatched in its coverage of witchcraft’s historical, practical, and cultural aspects. A student of the late Wicca pioneer Dr. Gerald Gardner, Raymond Buckland has been widely credited with introducing Wicca to the United States. He was one of the world’s foremost experts on Witchcraft, Wicca, and Earth religions. With 560 entries, a resource section, and 114 photos and illustrations, this is an exhaustive exploration of Witchcraft, Wicca, paganism, magic, people, places, events, literature, and more. It shows how, in pre-Christian and early Christian times, Witchcraft (with a capital “W”) was a magical and healing practice associated with early spirtual beliefs, including how the word "Witch" comes from the Old Anglo-Saxon wicce or wicca, meaning a “wise one”: the wiseman or -woman of the common people who had knowledge of herbs, healing, augury, and magic. It also tackles how Witchcraft and paganism were erroneously linked with Satanism, black magic, and pop-culture distortions. It defines both the darker Christian concept and the true concept of Wicca, concentrating on the Western European and later New World versions of Witchcraft and magic. The Witch Book is a broad and deep look at witches, witchcraft and the Wicca tradition.

Download or read book Embracing the Witch and the Goddess written by Kathryn Rountree and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Embracing the Witch and the Goddess is a detailed survey of present-day feminist witches in New Zealand. It examines the attraction of witchcraft for its practitioners, and explores witches' rituals, views and beliefs about how magic works. The book provides a detailed portrait of an undocumented section of the growing neo-pagan movement, and compares the special character of New Zealand witchcraft with its counterparts in the United States, Great Britain, and Australia. Kathryn Rountree traces the emergence and history of feminist witchcraft, and links witchcraft with the contemporary Goddess movement. She reviews scholarly approaches on the study of witchcraft and deals with the key debates which have engaged the movement's adherents and their critics, and ultimately presents what Mary Daly declared was missing from most historical and anthropological research on witchcraft: a 'Hag-identified vision'. Based on fieldwork amongst witch practitioners, Embracing the Witch and the Goddess is an important contribution to the emerging profile of present-day witchcraft and paganism.

With a life-saving potion in the works, an exciting new relationship to throw herself into, and not a single murder victim in sight, the newbie witch can finally sit back, relax, and watch the dragons fly overhead. Maybe she shouldn’t have let herself get too comfortable. When a grieving mother approaches Wren for help solving the murder of her son, she can’t bring herself to refuse, and so, once again, she must set out in search of a killer. As usual, the island promises plenty of adventure—this time, her investigation leads her to a home for displaced magical creatures, the lonely rocks at sea where the sirens await their prey, and a dense forest that a powerful werewolf pack calls home. But with that adventure comes plenty of danger. And as Wren soon finds out, sometimes the most beautiful things on the island can hide the deadliest secrets.
