Awful Green Stuff and the Nakedness of Trees

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lerrigo-Leidich, Harriette, PUBLISHER: Rutledge Books, Harriette Lerrigo-Leidich literally grew up with printer's ink on her hands. The daughter of a Nebraska newspaperman, she began her career as a columnist when she was fourteen, nearly seventy-five years ago. She continues to engage readers with a marvelously evocative, distinctive voice that combines the warm friendliness of your favorite neighbor with the keen perception of a seasoned journalist. Awful Green Stuff and the Nakedness of Trees is a collection of articles that explores the author's rich memories of the past to give meaningful insights into the puzzling complexities of contemporary society. In these homespun, but sharply observant pieces we are taken back to a time in small town America when the general store was the lively information center of the community, a sliver of an alligator pear was an exotic delicacy, and a young girl's first flight in an airplane was a magically exhilarating experience. Though the clacking typewriters and the rumbling printing presses of a bygone era have been replaced with quietly humming computers, the thoughtful, deliciously droll stories told here remind us that the things that really count in life are timeless.

The Gods of Roman Britain

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Green, Miranda J. / Aldhouse-Green, Miranda, PUBLISHER: Shire Publications, This book looks at the religious beliefs of the people of the Roman province of Britain and at the gods they worshipped. Little literary evidence survives and it is therefore necessary to rely almost wholly on epigraphic and iconographical representations. The book first examines the pre-Roman Celtic background to Romano-British religion from about 500 BC. The chapters following analyse the nature of the evidence; the introduction of Roman religion to the province; oriental cults including Christianity; the integration of Roman with pre-existing British and other Celtic cults, and the resulting composite religion which thus emerged. The final chapter examines stylised Celtic representations of anonymous divinities. Miranda Green is currently Professor of Archaeology at University of Wales College, Newport, where she is also Director of the SCARAB Research Centre.
