Walking the Old Ways: Studies in Contemporary European Paganism

Contemporary Paganism is often described by its followers as a revival or reconstruction of the religions of pre-Christian Europe, which is sometimes referred to as "The Old Way". Most followers of the Neo-Pagan movement state revitalisation of the Old Faith is not only a matter of individual choice of religion that is strongly rooted in tradition, but also a new form of spirituality that can change the World. This book presents various ways of conceptualizing Paganism in contemporary Europe and offers some possible answers to the question: where the Old Ways will lead us in the future?
