The Modern Antiquarian - Julian Cope
Hardcover - 448 pages ( 5 October, 1998) Thorsons
Julian Cope writes: I decided to write The Modern Antiquarian because there was no definitive guidebook of Megalithic Britain. And in doing so, I gradually discovered that this most shadowy side of our culture is truly still Unknown by all but the most intrepid scholars, such as Aubrey Burl, Paul Devereux and John Michell. When I visited certain obscure
megalithic temples, the most recent published photographs would often be from the 1930s, occasionally the 1900s, and in the case of one cromlech in Wales, 1893! People are numbed by the city and I have prepared 250 megalithic temples for them to visit, dividing Britain into seven different sections in a book designed to be extremely practical, extremely useful and a time-bomb: for it is this gazetteer which is the secret weapon of the whole book. It is relentlessly thorough. I followed any tips, clues, snippets of information, visiting sites when they were long destroyed or had had a church built on top of them, just to understand their orientation and their relationship with the immediate landscape, travelling abroad to megalithic Sweden, Holland, Greece, Portugal, Brittany and pre-Columbus America in order to get a true overview of our Hyperborean islands.
I have been to each temple (stone circle, chambered cairn, cromlech, etc.) and written about the specific place of the temple, its environment, and the relationship of these new agriculturists to their Mother Earth. I also warn of its dangers; farm dogs to look out for, feisty farmers, peat bogs, in a manner that places the book right now. Written on site, I have poems, thoughts, true Visions, fantasies, but also peace and a sense of discovery.
The Modern Antiquarian is a pre-Millennial trawl around Megalithic Britain, to the first temples built in these islands, in order to shine a light into the shadowy areas of a modern island people who have been hoodwinked into believing that their real culture began with the Roman Conquest. The Modern Antiquarian is meant to be an extraordinarily hopeful book for the culturally dispossessed; and a gift to the Britain of the new Millennium. Not the Roman-Saxon-Danish-Norman of Daniel Defoe's time, but a hopeful reconciler for the White, the Black, and the Green! It is written to set a standard as a guidebook. But it is also a Dreambook.

A good guide, but very dodgy scholarship
As a guide to where to find ancient monuments this is very good, and I'll certainly be using it to give some targets on my walking trips. I like the look and feel of the book a lot; it's well organised, and it's nice to read his notes on each monument - they communicate his enthusiasm and encourage me to get out and find these places, as do the pictures.If you're looking for a scholarly, reliable guide to ancient British monuments, don't buy this book. If you're looking for a personal, entertaining interpretation of these sites, which will encourage you to get out there, get this book and take it with a large pinch of salt. I'm glad I've got it though.
