        The Other Goddess

        Mary Magdalene and the Goddesses of Eros and Secret Knowledge

        by Dr. Joanna Kujawa

        Is there a lineage of goddesses that claims the evolutionary power of female sexuality? And if so, why were they pushed to the shadows and demeaned as harlots? Was Mary Magdalene one of them, and what were her teachings? Dr. Joanna Kujawa argues that in the process of recovering the healing power of the Goddess we have focused solely on the mother archetype and left out the other Goddess, who is often represented in mythical, historical, and Gnostic sources as wise, mysterious, and in the possession of the healing power of Eros. Learn about Mary Magdalene’s portrayal in the gnostic gospels as a teacher in her own right and Jesus' intimate partner, the possibility of her life as an alchemist in Egypt, and her last years in Southern France. Find out if Mary Magdalene was the same person as Mary the Prophetess of Egypt and her connection to the mysterious Cathars, Black Madonnas, and Knights Templar. Whether looking at Mary Magdalene, Sophia, Aphrodite, Inanna, Hathor, Isis, or the goddesses of esoteric Hinduism, Dr. Kujawa finds the archetype of The Other Goddess-the bearer of the mysteries of sexual alchemy that ends the division between sexuality and spirituality.

        A STRANGE NEIGHBOURHOOD

        During his holidays, Olivier goes into the garden of one of the houses in his village without permission and makes a strange discovery… Is it linked to one of the most famous puzzles in history?

        by Florian Dennisson

        Olivier, 13 years old, moves with his parents to the countryside after his mother, a history and geography teacher, is transferred to Arville, an old town that prides itself on having a commandery that traces back to the Knights Templar and their preceptor. While walking his friend Thomas’ dog, Olivier watches heavy work in a neighboring property and notices, horrified, that a shovel falls into a huge hole. Curiosity leads Olivier to go back to his neighbors’ garden and, to his great astonishment, uncovers with the shovel some old chests decorated with a kind of logo representing two riders on the same horse. The adventure could have begun here, but because Olivier went on the neighbors’ property without permission, his strict father punishes him: Olivier is grounded for all of summer vacation and will not be able to leave the house.Fortunately, Amanda, who he is secretly in love with, lives across the street and promises to help him.

        Pilgrimage to Iona

        Discovering the Ancient Secrets of the Sacred Isle

        by Claire Nahmad

        The little island of Iona has a rich tradition of spiritual and historical mystery. Legends abound of Jesus and Mary Magdalene alighting and living here for a period prior to the Crucifixion, as well as the suggestion that Jesus visited the island with his mother under the escort of Joseph of Arimathea. The stories of angel sightings on Iona are legion, with claims that the island was once an exalted temple of natural beauty and wilderness, where only angels’ feet trod and no earthliness was allowed to encroach on its sanctity. The theme of the book, as well as the celebration of sacred Iona as a place of pilgrimage, is the unveiling of the the secret of Rosslyn Chapel, the unique and extraordinary, unfinished little building just beyond Edinburgh that was made famous by Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code. Iona and Rosslyn are united by ancient history, and particularly by the Culdees, the monks of Iona who settled there under St Columba late in the sixth century, and who eventually gave rise to the Templars, whose secret legacy is said to be the mystery of Rosslyn Chapel. The significance of Iona, and the veneration it inspires in its pilgrims, both reaches back into the depths of history and points towards a spiritual future.

        Criminal-Inquisitorial Trials in English Church Trials

        From the Middle Ages to the Reformation

        by Henry Ansgar Kelly

        After inquisitorial procedure was introduced at the Fourth Lateran Council in Rome in 1215 (the same year as England’s first Magna Carta), virtually all court trials initiated by bishops and their subordinates were inquisitions. That meant that accusers were no longer needed. Rather, the judges themselves leveled charges against persons when they were publicly suspected of specific offenses—like fornication, or witchcraft, or simony. Secret crimes were off limits, including sins of thought (like holding a heretical belief). Defendants were allowed full defenses if they denied charges. These canonical rules were systematically violated by heresy inquisitors in France and elsewhere, especially by forcing self-incrimination. But in England, due process was generally honored and the rights of defendants preserved, though with notable exceptions. In this book, Henry Ansgar Kelly, a noted forensic historian, describes the reception and application of inquisition in England from the thirteenth century onwards and analyzes all levels of trial proceedings, both minor and major, from accusations of sexual offenses and cheating on tithes to matters of religious dissent. He covers the trials of the Knights Templar early in the fourteenth century and the prosecutions of followers of John Wyclif at the end of the century. He details how the alleged crimes of “criminous clerics” were handled, and demonstrates that the judicial actions concerning Henry VIII’s marriages were inquisitions in which the king himself and his queens were defendants. Trials of Alice Kyteler, Margery Kempe, Eleanor Cobham, and Anne Askew are explained, as are the unjust trials condemning Bishop Reginald Pecock of error and heresy (1457-59) and Richard Hunne for defending English Bibles (1514). He deals with the trials of Lutheran dissidents at the time of Thomas More’s chancellorship, and trials of bishops under Edward VI and Queen Mary, including those against Stephen Gardiner and Thomas Cranmer. Under Queen Elizabeth, Kelly shows, there was a return to the letter of papal canon law (which was not true of the papal curia). In his conclusion he responds to the strictures of Sir John Baker against inquisitorial procedure, and argues that it compares favorably to the common-law trial by jury.

        Same-Sex Sexuality in Later Medieval English Culture

        by Tom Linkinen

        This volume investigates the state of same-sex relations in later medieval England, drawing on a remarkably rich array of primary sources from the period that include legal documents, artworks, theological treatises, and poetry. Tom Linkinen uses those sources to build a framework of medieval condemnations of same-sex intimacy and desire and then shows how same-sex sexuality reflected“and was inflected by“gender hierarchies, approaches to crime, and the conspicuous silence on the matter in the legal systems of the period.

        Like Water in a Dry Land

        by Bettina Selby

        In December 1994, at a time of intense political pressure for peace in the Middle East, Bettina Selby set out on a journey from Cyprus to the Holy Land. Riding her bicycle wherever possible, she travelled slowly through Lebanon, Syria and Jordan and finally into modern Israel.. Her eventual destination was a city she knew and loved; so much so that the political turmoil of the preceding year had made her unwilling to return. Now, spurred on by the Jordan/Israel peace treaty and an audience with King Hussein, Bettina felt that at last a new perspective on Israel could be achieved. Over the next two months she travelled widely, from the ruins of Byblos in Lebanon to the Armenian Cathedral Church in Jerusalem, and to the refugee camps of Gaza. In every place she was offered the hand of friendship by people of diverse race and culture. What began as an enjoyable and quirky travelogue fast becomes a compelling critique of Middle Eastern politics, and it historical and religious foundations. In clear and lyrical prose, Bettina Selby has produced a fascinating account of her travels and a valuable contribution to our understanding of the modern Holy Land.
