The capacity of Johnston's work to underpin scholarship on phenomena from the ancient Mediterranean to the present day--from Isis charms in Christian Egypt to American goddess worship; from healing in the Epidaurian iamata to the medicine of Linda Hogan's Indios; from the believability of a Syriac ghost story to that of theurgic ritual--illustrates Johnston's impact and the vibrant state of work on myth, ritual, and belief UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1163/9789004741966 ER -
