Magic in Britain
Magic, both benevolent (white) and malign (black), has been practiced in the British Isles since at least the Iron Age (800 BCE-CE 43). "Curse tablets"--metal plates inscribed with curses intended to harm specific people--date from the Roman Empire. The Anglo-Saxons who settled in England in the fifth and sixth centuries used ritual curses in documents, and wrote spells and charms. When they became Christians in the seventh century, the new "magicians" were saints, who performed miracles. When William of Normandy became king in 1066, there was a resurgence of belief in magic. The Church was able to quell the fear of magicians, but the Reformation saw its revival, with numerous witchcraft trials in the late 16th and 17th centuries.
Stone Worlds
This book represents an innovative experiment in presenting the results of a large-scale, multidisciplinary archaeological project. The well-known authors and their team examined the Neolithic and Bronze Age landscapes on Bodmin Moor of Southwest England, especially the site of Leskernick. The result is a multivocal, multidisciplinary telling of the stories of Bodmin Moor—both ancient and modern—using a large number of literary genres and academic disciplines. Dialogue, storytelling, poetry, photo essays and museum exhibits all appear in the volume, along with contributions from archaeologists, anthropologists, sociologists, geologists, and ecologists. The result is a major synthesis of the Bronze Age settlements and ritual sites of the Moor, contextualized within the Bronze Ages of southwestern and central Britain, and a tracing of the changing meaning of this landscape over the past five thousand years. Of obvious interest to those in British prehistory, this is a substantial presentation of a groundbreaking project that will also be of interest to many concerned with the interpretation of social landscapes and the public presentation of archaeology.
The Forgotten Creatures
An abandoned church, rains of fish, and Signs from God. To save the town, they’ll need to stop the Second Coming. The supernatural is perfectly normal in eccentric Hawkinge-By-Hythe. When fish rain from the sky, it just means free dinner. Only professional sceptics, the Alumière sisters—witches, according to the locals—worry there’s worse to come... After a message from God, Reverend Gresstart enlists the righteous Mrs Pengle to spread the word. But she wants revenge more than she wants to get to heaven. As the weather worsens, literally raining cats and dogs, the Alumières race to dig up the truth. Even if no one wants them to. With the townsfolk rioting over what the Lord wants, the Alumières have their hands full. And that’s without the mystery of the whistling well, the buried catapults, or the man raising the dead with a parrot. All while running a chemist shop and becoming honorary aunts. Grab your best umbrella, salvation's in the air. So are fish. The Forgotten Creatures is the third standalone adventure in this whimsically bonkers series!
Oceanic Anglerfishes
No environment on Earth imposes greater physical and biological constraints on life than the deep oceanic midwaters. Near-freezing temperatures, the absence of sunlight, enormous pressure, and a low food supply make habitation by any living thing almost inconceivable. Yet 160 species of anglerfishes are found there in surprising profusion. Monstrous in appearance, anglerfishes possess a host of unique and spectacular morphological, behavioral, and physiological innovations. In this fully illustrated book, the first to focus on these intriguing fish, Theodore W. Pietsch delivers a comprehensive summary of all that is known about anglerfishes—morphology, diversity, evolution, geographic distribution, bioluminescence, and reproduction.
