Krátky popis
A concise history of the goddess-like figures who evade both
Christian and pagan traditions, from the medieval period to the
present day In this riveting account, renowned scholar Ronald
Hutton explores the history of deity-like figures in Christian
Europe. Drawing on anthropology, archaeology, literature, and
history, Hutton shows how hags, witches, the Fairy Queen, and the
Green Man all came to be, and how they changed over the centuries.
Looking closely at four main figures-Mother Earth, the Fairy Queen,
the Mistress of the Night, and the Old Woman of Gaelic
tradition-Hutton challenges decades of debate around the female
figures who have long been thought versions of pre-Christian
goddesses.He makes the compelling case that these goddess figures
found in the European imagination did not descend from the
pre-Christian ancient world, yet have nothing Christian about them.
It was in fact nineteenth-century scholars who attempted to
establish the narrative of pagan survival that persists today.
