Church of All Worlds Expanded Bibliography
by Anodea Judith & Oberon Zell
It has been our intention that this bibliography be arranged according to Rings in accordance with the RINGS Cycle. The basic First Ring Bibliography would ground people in the roots of our religion. The intermediate or Second Ring Bibliography would help to develop the skills and knowledge necessary for the Church's sustained growth, health, and stability. The advanced or Third Ring Bibliography would allow for individual branching out into areas of special interest and talent, encouraging clergy to develop particular expertise. It has proven impossible to categorically separate these books into those appropriate to each Ring, so they are here followed whenever possible by the letters A, B or C, indicating texts recommended for basic, intermediary or advanced studies. We have tried to also list them in recommended order of reading for a course of study in each category, and we welcome suggestions. Of course, no one individual is expected to read all or even most of these books; rather, we intend to offer here a selection of the best-recommended. Choose as many as you wish for as far as you wish to go in each area.
The goal is for everyone coming into CAW to be oriented in our basic identity and world view. So we have attempted to include only those books that express and teach the worldview that is our ground, at varying levels of complexity. We have considered different learning styles and levels of scholarly inclination in choosing our basic texts. Therefore, we have attempted to include in each category fiction and nonfiction books, tapes, and films that make the same basic point. The lists that follow are an attempt at such a bibliography, drawn from the many books submitted to us. As we intend that this list will be continually modified and upgraded, we welcome further annotations on these titles, as well as recommendations for additions or replacements. (Special thanks to Wendy Hunter-Robens, D.J. Hamouris, Anna Korn, Firebird, Sam Webster, Fathom Hummingbear, Jon DeCles, Nancy Kirtley, James Assad, Nybor Jordan Gruber, Gall Slocum.)
