    • 'Golden-shielded, silver-sworded, man-loving, male-child slaughtering Amazons,' is how the fifth-century Greek historian Hellanicus described the Amazons, and they have fascinated humanity ever since. Did they really exist? For centuries, scholars consigned them to the world of myth, but Lyn Webster Wilde journeyed into the homeland of the Amazons and uncovered astonishing evidence of their historic reality. North of the Black Sea she found archaeological excavations of graves of Iron Age women buried with arrows, swords and armour. In the hidden world of the Hittites, near the Amazons' ancient capital of Thermiscyra in Anatolia, she unearthed traces of powerful priestesses, women-only religious cults, and an armed, bisexual goddess - all possible sources for the ferocious women. Combining scholarly penetration with a sense of adventure, Webster Wilde has produced a coherent and absorbing book that challenges preconceived notions, still disturbingly widespread, of what men and women can do.

    • Les Celtes n'étaient pas uniquement de valeureux guerriers, c'était aussi un peuple mystique, paisible et créatif. De nos jours, nous continuons à apprécier leurs mythes, leur style décoratif et leur sens du merveilleux et de la magie. Ce livre reprend ces trois éléments en nous montrant comment nous en inspirer. Il recrée l'esprit des druides et des bardes grâce à des textes poétiques de l'époque, des intuitions spirituelles, et des exercices de méditation centrés sur les vérités universelles de la sagesse celtique. Car ces vérités sont toujours aussi pleines d'enseignements que jadis et elles peuvent nous aider plus que nous ne l'imaginons. Apprenez à vous soigner par les plantes, à user de charmes et à vous introduire sans risque dans l'Autre Monde. Découvrez les secrets des chevaliers du Roi Arthur, et toute la vérité sur le mystérieux Graal. Se pénétrer de la sagesse celtique au niveau le plus profond de notre esprit, c'est nourrir notre imagination avec des éléments de beauté et de magie.
