  • The Meaning of Witchcraft
    THE MEANING OF WITCHCRAFT By G. B. GARDNER Introduction by Dr. Leo Louis Martello MAGICKAL CHILDE, INC. 35 W. 19th St. (Gerald Gardner) GARDNER GRAND OLD MAN OF WITCHCRAFT By DR. LEO LOUIS MARTELLO Gerald B. Gardner’s biography has been published many times, including a chapter on him in my own Witchcraft: The Old Religion. For the record his first Craft book was High Magic’s Aid published in 1949, a self-published work. His second was Witchcraft Today in 1954 and his last was The Meaning of Witchcraft, 1959, five years before his death. Prior to these he had written A Goddess Arrives, 1948, and Keris and Other Malay Weapons, 1936. The latter and High Magic’s Aid were published under his pen-name of Scire. In Witchcraft Today the Bibliography has no listing of Charles Godfrey Leland and in this book he lists only Leland’s Gypsy Sorcery. Yet a careful study of the Gardnerian Book of Shadows reveals that many passages were copied directly from Leland’s Aradia. The secret name of the Goddess used in Gardnerian rites is also most revealing. His new converts shed lots of heat but not too much light, especially in view of all the hagiographical hogwash written about him. Those converts who saw the light preferred to keep others in the dark. This is characteristic of all new converts to any faith. And today none of this matters as the Craft... The Old Religion... Paganism has grown and expanded worldwide where the myths of the past, the factual inconsistencies, the claims and counterclaims fade into insignificance.

  • LA LÉGENDE DE TROIE AU MOYEN ÂGE I : La Légende D’Une Origine Troyenne, Ses Implications Politiques Et Ses Étapes
    L’article suivant sera un des chapitres d’une œuvre plus détaillée qui parlera de la réception de l’Antiquité dans la littérature française du Moyen Âge. Joachim Leeker (TU Dresden) LA LÉGENDE DE TROIE AU MOYEN ÂGE I : La légende d’une origine troyenne, ses implications politiques et ses étapes Malgré les découvertes de Schliemann et de ses disciples, encore aujourd’hui, tout ce qui a rapport à la légende de Troie est toujours classé comme faisant partie de la mythologie grecque. Aux yeux du Moyen Âge, par contre, la chute de Troie n’était pas seulement un événement historique bien daté,1 mais encore un événement décisif qui regarde la totalité de l’histoire européenne : Car aux yeux du Moyen Âge, la ville de Troie avait été une espèce de berceau mythique de beaucoup de peuples européens. Donc, le sujet connaît 3 aspects : I) La légende d’une origine troyenne, ses implications politiques et ses étapes; II) La chute de Troie comme sujet littéraire ; et III) Le voyage d’Énée comme sujet littéraire. Le but de cette partie de l’étude est de tracer l’origine, le développement et la fin de la légende de l’origine troyenne des Francs, donc ses étapes et ses implications politiques. Commençons par une définition : « légende d’une origine troyenne » signifie ici un rapport fictif, sur la base duquel un peuple – plus tard il peut s’agir aussi d’une ville – s’entendait comme descendant des anciens Troyens ; et descendre des Troyens signifiait au Moyen Âge posséder le titre de noblesse le plus respecté.

Dogs on the Down One of the joys of Magog Down is walking with your dog, and letting her/him romp with the other canine visitors in Fair Field, which almost always has at least two dogs playing together before or after a walk. There are many places to enjoy a stroll and admire the view together. The off-lead walk came out of the perimeter fencing installed orignially as a rabbit barrier. It was patrolled regularly and proved a very effective way of keeping rabbits from destroying new tree growth. It now provides a very popular walking area for all. In other areas, we are asked to keep our dogs on a short lead. These on-lead areas provide shelter for nesting birds and other wildlife, refuge for people who like to relax on the benches without fear of being interrupted by a loose dog and free play areas for children.

  • Tales of Wandlebury and the Gog Magog Hills Extracts from a Paper Read by Mr Arthur Gray on the Wandlebury Legend
    Session 2: Tales of Wandlebury and the Gog Magog Hills Extracts from A Paper read by Mr Arthur Gray on the Wandlebury Legend. " In England, at the boundary of the diocese of Ely, there is a town named Cantabrica, in the neighbourhood of which there is a place called Wandlebiria, from the fact that the Wandali, when ravaging Britain and savagely murdering the Christians, placed their camp there. Now, where they pitched their tents on the hill-top, there is a level space surrounded with entrenchments and with a single entrance, like a gate. There is a very ancient tradition, attested by popular report, that if a warrior enters this level space at the dead of night, when the moon is shining, and cries ' Knight to knight, come forth,' immediately he will be confronted by a warrior, armed for fight, who, charging horse to horse, either dismounts his adversary or is dismounted. But I should state that the warrior must enter the enclosure alone, though his companions may look on from outside. As proof of the truth of this I quote a story told to me by the country people of the neighbourhood. There was in Greater Britain, not many days ago, a knight redoubtable in arms and possessed of every noble quality, among the barons second in power to few, to none in worth. His name was Osbert, son of Hugh. One day he came as a guest to the town I have mentioned, and, it being winter time, after supper, as is the fashion with great folk, he was sitting in the evening by the fireside in the family of his wealthy host, and listening to tales of exploits of ancient days; and while he gave ear to them it chanced that one of the people of the country mentioned the wondrous legend aforesaid.

  • History of Babraham Hall and the Estate
    Babraham Institute The Babraham Institute History of Babraham Hall and the Estate Babraham Hall and the Estate The Babraham we see today has been shaped by every occupation of the land in its long and colourful history. Back before the institute, before the modern hall, before the hall of the 16th century, before the Normans, before the Saxons and even before the Romans, people lived in Babraham. Every man, woman and child made Babraham their own. It has seen many different owners and constructions but there is something familiar about the river and the green hills throughout time. Prehistoric Babraham Life began in the area now encompassed by the Babraham site in the Mesolithic (or Middle Stone Age) period. Geographically it is a prime place for habitation; it has always been close to a water source , it was situated close to the prehistoric trade route the Icknield Way and it is overlooked by the Gog Magog Hills (an obvious fortification). However the site does not appear to have been permanently populated, but was just used for its flint or for seasonal hunting. Later in the Bronze Age the area is believed to have been populated. The Gog Magog Hills were fortified and there is evidence of a great Bronze Age conflict. However, it is uncertain whether habitation spread down to the Babraham area. Roman British Babraham Occupation here by the Romans seems to have lasted from the Late Iron Age right through the 2nd and 3rd centuries and well into the 4th century before the site was abandoned. The Romans left most of the archaeology that has been recovered so far, although we still do not know entirely the settlement’s purpose other than it was a small Roman settlement in a rural area.
