Religion at the Boundaries

Deconstructing the Study of New Religious Movements

‘Cult’ Rhetoric in the 21st Century

Education, Literary Culture, and Religious Practice in the Ancient World

This book examines popular and scholarly representations of ancient Assyria through both ancient and modern sources. The ancient sources include Babylonian, Biblical and Egyptian, while the modern sources include the well-publicized excavations of Nineveh in the 19th century, which captured the popular imagination of Christian Europe. In order to interrogate these representations, the reader is taken back to examine the scholarly and cultural allegiances of the ancient Greek and native Egyptian sources, then to Assyrian self-representation and finally to an interrogation of the cultural and scholarly allegiances of contemporary historians. Straddling Biblical studies, religious studies, classics and ancient Near Eastern studies, this book examines how popular opinion can be informed by scholarly orthodoxy, and simultaneously, how scholarly consensus often rests on cultural orthodoxy.

Literary Representations of Assyria

"In this inspiring book of divine discovery, poet and seeker Arundhathi Subramaniam gives us a glimpse into the lives of four self-contained, unapologetic female spiritual travelers"--

In this inspiring book of divine discovery, poet and seeker Arundhathi Subramaniam gives us a glimpse into the lives of four self-contained, unapologetic female spiritual travelers.“Among the finest pieces of spiritual truth-telling literature I have ever read … A book to savor and celebrate.”—Mirabai Starr, author of Wild Mercy and Ordinary Mysticism“As the pages turn, one feels a growing sense of shared humanity, even kinship, with these extraordinary practitioners of the sacred.”—Tim Parks, author of&nbsp;Teach Us to Sit Still: A Skeptic’s Search for Health and HealingIn life, spiritual paths are often as unique as we are. Bringing together the voices of four women mystics walking very different spiritual paths, poet Arundhathi Subramaniam reveals the expansive potential of forging an intimate, personal connection with the divine. We'll meet these four travelers:<ul><li>Sri Annapurani Amma, who left the safety of home to follow the summons of a long-dead saint and chooses to live naked,</li><li>Balarishi Vishwashirasini, a nada yoga teacher who became a guru as a child and admits she's missed out on a real childhood,</li><li>Lata Mani, who discovered tantra after a major accident left her with a brain injury and today talks of how the spiritual life is deeply anchored in the wisdom of the body—not unlike the redwood trees of her adopted home, and</li><li>Maa Karpoori, who needed to resist pressure to marry, and found her calling in a local yoga class and now radiates fierce independence and the contagious joy of living.</li></ul>Sensitive, insightful, and lyrical, Women Who Wear Only Themselves bathes us in the kind of mystery that feels deeply familiar and invites us to connect with whatever sparks our spiritual fire.

The Little Book of Dragons

"In seed time learn, in harvest teach, in winter enjoy."- William Blake 
"A Season of Madness&nbsp;is a fantastic carnival of a book.
Equal parts irreverent and erudite, it lovingly captures the depth, complexity,
and subversive nature of the carnival, from its ancient roots to modern
expression. Gorgeously illustrated, intellectually hefty, and also&nbsp;fun, it
is a seductive introduction to the material cultures, legends, and history of
this perennially fascinating and slippery subject."—Joanna Ebenstein, Founder and Creative Director of Morbid
Anatomy Al Ridenour, creator and host of the popular podcast&nbsp;Bone
and Sickle&nbsp;and author of&nbsp;The Krampus and the Old, Dark
Christmas&nbsp;extends his study of Winter folk celebrations to the Spring,
exploring the Old-World Carnival in&nbsp;A Season of Madness.Sumptuously illustrated with over one hundred historical and
modern images, Ridenour ushers readers into cultural hinterlands where
celebrations still echo the cruel realities of the old, agricultural world, and
medieval Christianity intertwines with pagan practice.From&nbsp;ancient Rome to modern Bulgaria,&nbsp;readers
encounter a holiday at once beautiful, strange, and savage. Spring is welcomed
by clowns waving inflated pig bladders. Stalking sheepskin monsters brandish
clubs bristling with hedgehog spines, and plows are dragged over cobblestone
streets by celebrants wearing masks painted with cow’s blood. Folk horror fans
take heart as the Old World welcomes Spring!







Ridenour’s first book,&nbsp;Krampus and the Old, Dark
Christmas: Roots and Rebirth of the&nbsp;Folkloric Devil&nbsp;(2018) is
considered by critics the definitive authority on pagan winter celebrations.
Aside from his books and podcast, Ridenour is a sought-after expert and
lecturer. "Sumptuously illustrated and written with clarity, eloquence,
and wry humor,&nbsp;A Season of Madness&nbsp;is one of those rare books that
can pass muster as an academic study yet also provide a good read. Al
Ridenour's meticulous research exposes the subtleties and outrageous quirks of
a topic you didn't know you wanted to learn about until you picked up his book.
Under his direction, the madness once again reigns, as the neglected history of
European Carnival is placed center stage before the reader, in all its seedy,
wild, and triumphant glory."&nbsp;—Dr. Paul Koudounaris, author and photographer
of:&nbsp;Faithful&nbsp;unto Death,&nbsp;Heavenly Bodies, and numerous other
exquisitely beautiful books about death.
