Yesterday Mélange was privileged to have a visit from Dr. Brendan Myers, who had come in from Hamilton to give us a lecture on the origins of the concept of Virtue, as well as a discussion of what it means in terms of modern pagan practices.
There was standing room only for the lecture, and a fairly decent line to have copies of his latest book, The Other Side of Virtue, signed and to talk to Dr. Myers one on one. People came out from as far as Ottawa for this opportunity, and none were disappointed. Afterwards, there was a dinner in the Old Port, too.
For anyone who missed this event, don't despair! We have more signed copies of his book in store, and a promise for another visit when his next book, A Pagan Testament comes out this November.
This event is one of a few author events that is co-sponsored by the MPRC. We are pleased to work with them to bring pagan authors and guest speakers in to the store for the enjoyment of our community.
News, events, and other interesting tidbits of the goings-on here at our store.
