But in fact, as Miranda Aldhouse-Green shows in this fascinating book, the Druids' day-to-day lives were far less lurid and much more significant. Exploring the various roles that Druids played in British and Gallic society during the first centuries B.C. and A.D.-not just as priests but as judges, healers, scientists, and power brokers-Aldhouse-Green argues that they were a highly complex, intellectual, and sophisticated group whose influence transcended religion and reached into the realms of secular power and politics. With deep analysis, fresh interpretations, and critical discussions, she gives the Druids a voice that resonates in our own time. 606 $aDruids and druidism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aDruids and druidism. 676 $a299/.16161 700 $aAldhouse-Green$b Miranda J$g(Miranda Jane)$0156170 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452838903321 996 $aCaesar's Druids$92471598 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01864nam 2200493 450 001 9910716996303321 005 20211025112833.0 035 $a(CKB)5470000002526228 035 $a(OCoLC)1280314451 035 $a(EXLCZ)995470000002526228 100 $a20211025j201108 ua 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aSeismic performance of steel plate girder bridges with integral abutments 210 1$aWashington, DC :$cU.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration,$dAugust 2011. 215 $a1 online resource (x, 152 pages) $cillustrations 300 $a"Publication no.
