Full Description
The Green Man is the archetype, the male counterpart of the Goddess of the Gaia hypothesis, which suggests that the planet Earth is a single living organism, found in folklore and religious art from the earliest times, and especially linked with the Christian origins of modern science. Beautifully illustrated in color as well as black and white, and connected with a BBC Omnibus documentary, 'Green Man' is the record of a quest for the archetype through folklore, religion, art and architecture, from prehistory to the present.
