 The White Goddess - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Still, Graves's vision appeals sufficiently to some, that it has kept its power to convince and to overwhelm.
A simplified version of Graves's goddess religion has become the faith of dozens of fantasy novels, from the works of Marion Zimmer Bradley and Mercedes Lackey to Graves's own Seven Days in New Crete.
Whatever its flaws as a work of information about ancient mythologies and cultures, The White Goddess has now become the shared fantasy of hundreds of thousands of people; it may not reflect ancient mythologies accurately, but it remains a classic of contemporary myth-making.

 Timeline 1940s page of ULTIMATE SCIENCE FICTION WEB GUIDE
Of the 20 magazine titles published in the 1938-1949 time span, in this single year of 1941 there were over 100 individual issues on the news stands, a veritable cornucopia for delighted (and overwhelmed) readers.
In this decade, of course, World War II was fought, and as parts of the vast global military effort, the real world was flung into the atomic age (1945), the computer age (BINAC, 1945; ENIAC 1946), and the age of intercontinental ballistic missiles (V-2 attacks in 1944).
