Modernist War Poetry: Combat Gnosticism and the Sympathetic Imagination, 1914–19 (Edinburgh Critical Studies in Modernist Culture)

This study examines the work of the principle architects of Anglo-American modernist poetics – T.S. Eliot, H.D., Ezra Pound, Gertrude Stein, Edward Thomas and Wallace Stevens – and their response to the challenge of combatant war poetries. It argues that these civilian poets sought to negotiate directly with the combatant’s gnosticism, specifically with the combatant’s assertion that only those present at a catastrophe could properly represent its horrors. The modernists rightly identified that gnosticism was a threat to their own representational claims on an increasingly traumatic modernity. How was the imagination to be salvaged in order that it could still feel into the wounded experience of others? In response to this challenge, the modernists drafted their own imagined war poems, developing in the process several different and contradictory poetic systems. Whereas scholarship ordinarily tells the story of intra-war modern poetry as a series of different schools – the trench lyric, the home front elegy and the modernist long poem – each moving in a different direction, this study brings those traditions back together into one history by treating them as idiosyncratic responses to the same aesthetic problem.

The spiritual tenets of Wicca are steeped in an inherent reverence for nature and stewardship of the environment. In fact, Wiccan practitioners have been living—and cooking—green since ancient times. In the decade since the first edition of the The Wicca Cookbook cast its spell over culinary history buffs and adventurous cooks everywhere, many readers have asked “What makes a cookbook Wiccan?” The tenth anniversary edition answers that question and more, bringing fresh dimensions to this heady witches’ brew with new rituals and delicious recipes. More than 100 dishes, many historically authentic, all meticulously researched, emphasize the use of organic ingredients at their seasonal peak and celebrate all the major pagan holidays: enjoy Stuffed Nasturtiums, Goddess Athena Pitas, and Deva Saffron Bread for the Spring Equinox; serve Elder Flower Chicken, Lilith’s Lily Fair Soup, and Wild Woman White Sage Jelly during the Summer Solstice; and Cupid’s Cold Slaw, Imbolc Moon Cookies, and Snowflake Cakes make delightful Candlemas treats. Nature-honoring dishes, eco-friendly living tips, and an inclusive message of spirituality make The Wicca Cookbook a unique contribution to the culinary world and a magickal tribute to the pagan spirit.

The Teen Spell Book: Magick for Young Witches

Social Issues

Long ago, people turned to Mother Earth to gather herbs for healing, ritual, eating, and beauty. Today, herbs are experiencing a renaissance as people seek natural solutions to their medicinal, nutritional, and cosmetic needs. Rooted in Wiccan practice—a personal, earth-based spirituality that emphasizes living in harmony with natural cycles—THE WICCA HERBAL details and demystifies 100 magickal herbs, with gardening tips and recipes for cooking, healing, ritual, and other purposes. The book includes such popular herbs as lavender, chamomile, mint, and sage, as well as less common but equally useful herbs such as orris (for creating love spells), milk thistle (for healing and detoxing the body), and dragon’s blood (for increasing the power of spellwork). Author Jamie Wood details the practical points of herbal gardening and usage, and explores the spiritual connection with the earth that can be gained from growing and harvesting herbs and observing nature’s cycles. A culmination of Wiccan expertise, magickal herbalism, aromatherapy, natural medicine, and organic gardening, this beautiful tome is an invaluable resource for Wiccans and herb lovers alike.
