Mab's REAL MA blog, as opposed to the other one in which she waffles about her life instead.

Days 11-14
Day 11 (Thursday) -
Read Ankaloo and Clark's introduction and part of Ronald Hutton's essay. Wrote a couple of 100 words for the Academic's queries chapter.
Day 12 (Friday) -
In my notebook, devoted a page to each chapter and brainstormed things that could go into those chapters. Came up with some thoughts in response to the Ankaloo and Clark theory.
Also came up with another couple of questions for the questionnaire.
Day 13 (Saturday)
Discussed the Ankaloo and Clark theory with Nick Cook, and we bounced ideas off each other about how it could be responded to. Later made notes on all of these thoughts about it.
Discussed methodology with Kate Weston, and she suggested that Haralambos might be a good sociological source for the question of what IS a religion.
Bought a book by HR Trevor-Roper and hunted through a couple of Glastonbury book shops to find texts that I'm still missing.
Day 14 (Sunday)
Discussed with Branny the origins of Dutch Wicca. She believes that it was a British person who is one of the main Gardnerian people. She is going to look into it for me. Made a note to myself to collate a list of who were the Wiccan pioneers in each country to see if they are all British (plus ask the question on the Grove). This information will be useful in both my introduction and as an item on the Academic queries list, as a future specific study.
