Dictionary of Slavic Mythology

Before you is not an ordinary dictionary with articles about gods, evil spirits, and monsters of Slavic mythology, but a whole treasury of stories and legends, often told by the characters themselves. They will reveal what powers they possess, how stars, mountains, and rivers came into being, and will certainly share their emotions about each other: for they are not strangers to envy, resentment, compassion, and love. On the pages of this book, you will find not only the long-familiar gods of the Slavic pantheon: the proud Veles, the beautiful Devena, the multi-headed Azhdai, and many other heroes of Slavic myths will unveil a veil of mystery and allow you to see them from previously unseen angles.
