Issue 1 of The Pomegranate<\/i>, February 1997.<\/p><\/div>\n

The first eighteen issues of The Pomegranate<\/em>, back when its subtitle was a still “A New Journal of Neopagan Thought,” are now available in in PDF form from Valdosta State University in Georgia.<\/a><\/p>\n

Spanning from 1997\u20132002, these are the issues produced by its founding editor, Fritz Muntean, in Vancouver, BC.<\/p>\n

Fritz and I spent some time at the 2001 and 2002 annual meetings of the Americab Academy of Religion seeking an established scholarly publisher to help it become a recognized, peer-reviewed journal, listed in all the databases.<\/p>\n

Instead, after a short hiatus, we ended up with a start-up publisher, Equinox,<\/a> which has helped it to grow in the subsequent years.<\/p>\n
