About the book: 2022 / The long-awaited continuation of the series “Myths from and to,” dedicated to Slavic mythology. Ancient Slavs, unlike Greeks, Egyptians, Celts and many other peoples did not leave behind a mythological epic. As a result, we don't really know much about their mythology, and the gaps in knowledge are quickly filled with speculation and misconceptions. The author of this book, Alexandra Barkova, tells us what we really know about Slavic paganism, dispels popular myths and shows how interesting and surprising were the ideas of our ancestors about the world around us, life and death. The book contains about 100 illustrations.
