Birth of Clover explores the captivating cultural history of the clover, a symbol deeply embedded in folklore, luck, and prosperity across various societies. The book investigates how this seemingly simple plant has evolved from ancient Celtic traditions and mythology to its modern-day presence in popular culture and commercial enterprise. Intriguingly, the four-leaf clover's rarity has amplified its association with good fortune, and it has undergone reinterpretation within Christian symbolism, notably through Saint Patrick's use of the shamrock to explain the Holy Trinity. This social science and history analysis traces the clover's botanical origins and early ties to nature worship, then illustrates its integration into religious iconography. Later chapters delve into the commodification of the clover motif in advertising and tourism, revealing how its symbolic value is leveraged for economic gain. The book concludes by examining the clover's enduring appeal in contemporary culture, emphasizing its continued representation of hope and connection to nature, as demonstrated through case studies from Ireland, the United States, and Japan.
