The Book of Slavic Goddesses, Female Creatures, and Mythical Figures of: Poland, Croatia, Czech, Slovak, Ukraine, Bielarus, Russia, Lithuania and more.
Why this, and not other book on Slavic Goddessess, Heroes and Mythical Creatures?
Ancient knowledge of the past dies every day with an older generation. These things were rarily passeddown to youngers, so The Book of Slavic Goddessess is a way to preserve it.
If You want to find something on Slavic history in English, You will quickly learn that sources are really scarce, and what is out there is often sort of a ‘fan fiction’ version of Slavic history. There is also not much on more spiritual topics that are rare anyway in any language. So this book will delve deep into topics of Slavic history backed by credible scientific sources, but I will also mention my own experiences and things I know and learned personally. Why?
Oftentimes if I looked for something on the Internet I found nothing, yet my old neighbor from Podlasie, Poland had 100 % correct information from hundreds of years ago. Often nobody inspects these old stories and beliefs. Nobody even writes them down! For centuries, it was shunned. What is left is not enough credible sources. Or is it? Writing this book I realized that some things we do know, we just… don’t want to make any definite statements, because it could contradict the common knowledge. Other times there really is not much left aside from an oral history. This knowledge dies quickly with our ancestors and my book is a form of preserving it.
