Book Synopsis Druid, Shaman, Priest by : Leslie Jones
Book excerpt: Not yet another revelation of the true nature of the Celtic religious figures, but a study of the literary representation of them throughout the ages. Begins by surveying the folklore, anthropology, and archaeology literature to identify the little uncontested knowledge about them. Then looks at medieval texts; the religious and political agendas underlying the resurgence of interest in 18th-century Britain; and the contemporary image of druids in popular films and television, New Age and Neo-Pagan books, and on-line discussions. Not illustrated. Distributed in the US by ISBS. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
