"It’s interesting, I’d say. Mostly good so far with solid stuff. There is one line where the author claims (without any citation) that Saturnalia was just reappropriated to Christmas, a claim as old as a certain Lutheran historian and many later unconventional Protestants would adopt. Of course, I say it’s false but there’s all too many other books that discuss that trope. Other than that, I like the rest!" — Jul 18, 2025 07:20PM
