Description: Star.Ships beckons those who are willing to engage in the adventure to follow the great river of history that flows into and out of an ocean of stars. Gbekli Tepe, the Pyramids and Sphinx, Nabta Playa, Gunung Padang, Easter Island and Sundaland are some of the points spangled across a work of truly cosmic scope. A defining text of the new magical renaissance, Star. Ships addresses the question of who we are now by tracing where we come from, and by draw- ing out the stories and the spirits that have journeyed with us. The goal is, as Gordon writes, the restoration of context. Utilising mythological, linguistic and astronomical data to reconstruct palaeolithic magical beliefs, he maps them to the human journey out of Africa and explores which aspects of these beliefs and practices have survived into the Western tradition. Written for a magically literate audience, Star. Ships displays flair, wit and engagement with the evidence. White deftly handles vast time scales and cosmologies in a masterful deployment of the latest research. He questions outworn dominant narratives and is not afraid to champion the work of independent researchers or entertain forbidden discourses.
