Search online if the title is unfamiliar to you as I only know of it in passing. I have found it on sites such as the Internet Archive in the .pdf format as well as the site Sacred Texts as Hypertext but will refrain from posting the links in accordance to the rules.
I am confused on how to approach the topic since I know so little about it yet am interested in reading and understanding it as a story.
That is just the thing however, am I to see Aradia as a Witch Messiah? Or a Historical Practitioner of Dianic Magic?
The origins of the myth are guarded in obscurity and mystery; So among scholars it is assumed that Leland himself came up with the story, but I believe this may hold some truth not as an exact historic record of the past but as another oracular tale that may have been lost if it had not been recorded.
