Slavic Paganism. Universe, Society, Rituals

Almost forgotten now are the rituals of the ancient faith of the Slavs, directed not only to the Heavens but also to the Other World: can we comprehend them now, centuries later, after they have largely given way to foreign religion? After all, everything in our Manifest world manifests with otherworldly meanings, serving as symbols through which a person connects to the radiance of the Other World, the grandeur of the elements, and the eternity of the Gods.

Using a large volume of information obtained from the ethnography, history, and archaeology of the Slavs and other related peoples, the authors of the book reconstruct the ancient pagan vision and reveal the features of traditional understanding of the world.

Issues of origin, philosophy, and history are considered, significant for the perception of the Native Faith as a special system of worldview that does not recognize dogmas in faith, alien to any foreign ideological dictate.

The publication is addressed to a wide audience and to all interested in the native customs of the Slavs.
