No one knows. The early Christians celebrated Christmas (The Mass of Christ) on dates as widely apart as the 1st and 6th of January, the 29th March and the 29th September. The firm choice of 25th December seems only to have been made by Pope Julius I (A.D. 337-52) and since the end of the fourth century this has been the date for the celebration of Christmas throughout Christendom.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBut the choice of dates was not as arbitrary as it seems at first glance. It was a shrewd and practical decision on the part of the early Church Fathers, for mid-winter had always been a season of merry-making for many pagan peoples from whom the young Church intended to draw its converts. In Rome the 25th was observed as the Dies Natalis Invicti Solis (Birthday of the Unconquered Sun), sacred to Mithras, God of Light, and the Phrygian sungod, Attis. The great Roman Saturnalia, a festival of fire and light, notorious for its wild celebrations, began on 17th December and lasted for seven days and this was quickly followed by the New Year celebrations of Kalends. As the Roman empire prospered and spread, these feasts had been carried to its remotest corners and the festivals were celebrated with as much enthusiasm on Hadrian's Wall as in the deserts of North Africa by the exiled Romans and their conquered peoples. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(Excerpt from the first chapter)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product__description rte quick-add-hidden\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetails\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoftcover booklet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Very good\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: Shire Publications of Tring \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Eureka Editions ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55980738642268,"sku":null,"price":7.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/6333\/3724\/files\/08574164-B618-4302-B360-F3495EC84DFF.jpg?v=1763215341"},{"product_id":"christmas-picture-book-from-the-victoria-albert-museum","title":"Christmas Picture Book from the Victoria \u0026 Albert Museum","description":"\u003ch2\u003eChristmas Picture Book from the Victoria \u0026amp; Albert Museum\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis handbound booklet presents 28 pictures of bas reliefs, paintings, engravings, embroideries and stained glass picturing different scenes recounting key moments of the birth of Jesus Christ. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandbound booklet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Good\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublishing House: John Wright and Sons Ltd 1961\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Eureka Editions ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55980777013596,"sku":null,"price":7.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/6333\/3724\/files\/86207C11-1E9C-4807-AB87-ECBD2E2160EF.jpg?v=1763215565"},{"product_id":"the-lord-of-the-rings-wapens-veldslagen-door-chris-smith","title":"The Lord of the rings, wapens \u0026 veldslagen door Chris Smith","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Lord of the rings, wapens \u0026amp; veldslagen door Chris Smith met een voorwoord van Christopher Lee\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHet volledige naslagwerk over de krijgers,  hun wapens en de slagveldenm van Midden-Aarde.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e'Wapens \u0026amp; veldslagen'\u003c\/em\u003e is een fullcolour filmboek met een schat aan informatie over de militaire en strategische achtergronden van het epische filmdrieluik '\u003cem\u003eThe Lord of the Rings'.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHet bevat 1000 exclusieve foto's, tekeningen en plattegronden.

In this first thorough examination of fantasy as a literary genre, W. R. Irwin attempts to bring order to this phenomenon of cultural history by examining the common characteristics of fantasies written between 1880 and 1957.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBy selecting the time span when the genre was most prominent, he confronts some well-remembered and some almost forgotten works of eminent authors such as C. S. Lewis, Franz Kafka, Ronald Firbank, David Garnett, Sir Herbert Read, Elinor Wylie, W. H. Hudson, Virginia Woolf, and J. R. R. Tolkien. '\u003cem\u003eThe game of the Impossible\u003c\/em\u003e' examines these selected works - representing a variety of experimental novel-length fiction - for both their intrinsic importance and illustrative value.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIrwin establishes that a fantasy is a story based on and controlled by an overt violation of what is generally accepted as possibility. It is, he says, the narrative result of transforming a condition contrary to fact into \"fact\" itself. As a kind of intellectual play, it is a calculated diversion in which writer and reader temporarily engage themselves. Its usefulness lies in its ability to entertain, to provide a respite from ordinary concerns, and sometimes to offer a critique of our familiar world.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePopular fascination with the fantastic has grown in the last twenty years, Irwin says, while fantasy itself appears to be waning.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe term \"fantasy\" has been carelessly used to designate \"almost any kind of strange feeling, thought, conduct or experience; any kind of bizarre story, whether on the printed page, on stage, or in film.\" Though he views such exuberance as \"a sign of imaginative health,\" Irwin suggests it has the potential danger of making \"fantasy\" mean nothing at all.
