DESCRIPTION:Celebration with author Max Dashu: readings, drummers, special guests, and 
 good conversation\n\nA thousand years ago, an Old English scribe condemned 
 people who “bring their offerings to earth-­fast stone and to trees and 
 wellsprings, as the witches teach.” These animist sacraments contradict 
 everything we have been told about witches. \n In this book, Max Dashu 
 pulls the covers off repressed cultural heritages in a compelling 
 exploration of language, archaeology, medieval literature and art. The old 
 ethnic names for “witch” meant “knower,” “prophetess,” 
 “healer,” “enchantress,” or “shapeshifter.” Webs of Wyrd, 
 staff-women, herb-chanters, and women who go by night with Goddess: it’s 
 all in here. Witches and Pagans gathers together strands of folk wisdom to 
 reweave the ripped webs of women’s culture in Europe. This book is the 
 first published volume in the Secret History of the Witches series from 
 Veleda Press. 408 pages, 140 illustrations. www.veleda.net
