Book Description
Within this book, Hargrave Jennings looks at the role "Phallicism" has played in various religions, including Rosicrucianism, Gnosticism, and Buddhism. A fascinating exploration of the significance of sexuality in religious doctrine, "Phallicism" is not to be missed by those with an interest in the topic, and it would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "Definitions and Distinctions leading up to the verities of Phallicism", "The History of the Phallic 'Symbol-Structures'; their Origin, Genealogy, and Variety through the succession of the historical-religions ages", "The Story of the Classes of the Phalli", "Celestial or Theosophical Doctrine of the Unsexual Transcendental Phallicism", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality, edition complete with the original text and artwork.

Book Description
Ken Russell has made some of the most daring, disturbing, and beautifully photographed films of all time. Drawing from a wealth of historic and literary references, Russell's subjects are astounding: deranged Ursuline nuns in a 17th-century French province, the inner demons of Mary Shelley and Lord Byron, the sexual angst of Tchaikovsky, the emotionally drained life of Rudolph Valentino, the messianism of a pinball wizard, the fury of lesbian vampires, the introspections of prostitutes. Russell's movies offer not just brazen sensationalism but food for thought; they horrify yet inspire. And through it all, Russell maintains a simultaneously impish and intellectual sense of humor. The first full biography of the director, Phallic Frenzy is far from a dry, film-by-film analysis. It shows how Russell's real life has often been as engaging and vibrant as his film scenarios. Here you'll learn how Alan Bates and Oliver Reed compared their penis sizes for the nude wrestling scene in Women in Love; how Russell disfigured Paddy Chayevsky's script for Altered States by having the actors holler out the lines as fast as possible, accompanied by spewed food and streams of spittle; and how Russell was slated to direct Evita, starring Liza Minnelli, and the “creative differences” that ensued. A madcap tale full of wild ideas, surreal situations, and a cavalcade of colorful personalities, Phallic Frenzy is as thrilling a ride as any Ken Russell film.
