Delinquent
Elementals: A Pagan News Anthology collects some of the finest
articles, news reports, interviews, and humour that appeared in this singular
publication, providing a fascinating glimpse into the British occult and Pagan
countercultures of the 1980s and early ’90s.
This collection, newly annotated by the editors, contains a plethora of
essays, commentary, and a wide selection of evolving knowledge and insight into
occult practices, while the list of contributors is a veritable directory of new
wave British occultism. Delinquent Elementals reveals how magical
practitioners interacted with the wider culture, political activism, and the
struggle for LGBTQ+ rights and recognition. The zine’s 36 issues also
charted the arrival, and devastating impact, of the Satanic Ritual Abuse Panic
as it landed on UK shores and began a systematic assault on its occult
communities.
Wonderfully unpretentious, absurdly funny and deeply insightful, this is the
definitive guide to the radical publication that reflected and reshaped
late-twentieth century British occultism.
