For anyone who has fallen off the Treadwells mailing list..

Happy New Year from all of us here at Treadwell's.

After a server crash over the holidays, we're building a new Treadwell's
website and, with it, a new mailing list. You were, I am certain, on the
old list, so I've gone ahead and added you to the new one.

You will get an email later today asking for you to confirm, so look out for
it! You may of course change the email address at which you receive our
newsletters mailings, and of course remove yourself at any time.

We'll be sending out an Events Newsletter later this week, and a Rare Books
List at the end of the month.

Thank you for your support, and I hope to hear from you soon --

Christina --

PS. Please let any friends know they may need to rejoin the Treadwells
mailing list. We have actually lost a many names Here's

Secret Witches blog

Has anyone else seen this site: http://witchessecret.blogspot.com/

It seems to be re-publishing private group posts from a number of Pagan/Witchy yahoo groups including this one.

I'm not particularly happy about this but it seems the complaint forms are all set up around the actual owner of the content making a complaint.

May I ask that the owners of this group look into making a formal complaint please? And If anyone is on the other groups the witches secret blog is ripping off could you pass the message on?

Cheers
Jo

AAR Contemporary Pagan Studies

For interest's sake, this is what the American Academy of Religion's
Contemporary Pagan Studies call for papers themes are for 2012. I don't
think I'll be submitting anything, but I'm interested nevertheless.

Call for Proposals

This Group invites submissions on the following themes:

. For a possible cosponsored session with the
<http://www.rsnonline.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=904&I
temid=1021> Indigenous Religious Traditions Group, we invite papers on the
intersection of contemporary indigenous traditions and paganism related to
indigeneity, authenticity, and legitimacy. These may, for example, analyze
how claims of indigenous status are used in relationship with political and
theological issues or how groups deploy strategies around the issue of
"authenticity"

. The major metaphors of any religious tradition speak to ways
humans connect with the Divine. Ancient - and some contemporary - forms of
Paganism frequently employed notions of sacrifice and reciprocity. Modern
Wicca, to name one tradition, consciously rejects the notion of sacrifice
and replaces it with sexual intercourse as a metaphor both of internal
psychological integration and as cosmic creation and fertility, from the
Great Rite to the Dance of the Maypole. We invite papers on how these
metaphors persist, interact, and manifest within historical and contemporary
Paganism and how they frame interactions among participants

. Is there really such a thing as Pagan "theology," or is the term
itself too embedded within an Abrahamic religious context? Should Pagan
theology more accurately be described as praxology, or theories of Pagan
praxis? What would Pagan praxology look like and how would it advance our
understanding of religion?

Mission

This Group provides a place for scholars interested in pursuing studies in
this newly developing and interdisciplinary field and puts them in direct
communication with one another in the context of a professional meeting. New
scholars are welcomed and supported while existing scholars are challenged
to improve their work and deepen the level of conversation. By liaising with
other AAR Program Units, this Group creates opportunities to examine the
place of Pagan religions within a hypermodern society and to examine how
other religions may intersect with the dynamic and mutable religious
communities that make up Paganism today.

Modern Paganism's Role in Interfaith

What do people think about Paganism's role in Interfaith Dialogue?

http://www.patheos.com/blogs/wildhunt/2012/01/modern-paganisms-role-in-inter
faith.html

It's huge in the USA. I used to be sort of interested in it, but then lost
interest.

~Caroline.
