Abstract

The English writer John Michell (1933–2009) occupied a significant position within British alternative religion. Michell’s manifold books revolve around his life-long aim to re-enchant the English landscape and launch a new golden age. Michell was a devoted Traditionalist and is widely considered the founding father of the vast field of British Earth Mysteries. Associated groups embrace speculative theories of the earth, claiming the existence of telluric (dragon) energies. As Michell’s impact on such groups is widely acknowledged, within the context of Earth Mysteries, this article centers on cerealogy and the Dragon Environmental Network as examples in exploring Michell’s discursive and enduring influence.
庄稼,龙,和重施魔法的风景。约翰·米歇尔对英国地球之谜的影响
英国作家约翰·米歇尔(1933-2009)在英国另类宗教中占有重要地位。米歇尔的众多著作围绕着他的毕生目标,即重新为英国风景增添魅力,开启一个新的黄金时代。米歇尔是一位虔诚的传统主义者,被广泛认为是英国地球神秘学领域的奠基人。相关团体信奉地球的推测理论,声称大地(龙)能量的存在。由于米歇尔对这些群体的影响得到了广泛的认可,在《地球之谜》的背景下,本文以cereology和Dragon环境网络为例,探讨米歇尔的话语和持久的影响。
