Slavic Mythology: Demons in Serbian folklore

Slavic Mythology: Demons in Serbian folklore - Vladimir Zlatic

Slavic Mythology: Demons in Serbian folklore


The book in front of you is an ideal combination of a modern approach to mythology and scientific study. Even today, due to the small number of material remains and scarce written sources, the beliefs of the old Slavs are insufficiently researched and reconstructed, especially among the South Slavs, and thus the Serbs. However, Serbian folklore is, due to specific historical and political condition, extremely well preserved and for the most part remained unchanged since Bronze Age. Not well known outside of its borders Serbian mythology is as rich and beautiful as more popular traditions, like ancient Greek or Norse mythology. Serbian mythology is probably the richest by content and best preserved of all Indo-European mythologies. It is still very much alive today and it is still a part of everyday life. A series of complete articles on demonic creatures extensively covers everything that represents one of the basic and most important foundation parts of Serbian mythology. Many of the creatures described in the book precede the establishment of mythological consciousness and order (language, religion, tradition). Old fate survived numerous attempts to be destroyed and replaced by other belief systems over the period of two millenia. This book deserves special attention because in it, the author Vladimir Zlatic reviewed, systematized and combined previous knowledge on this topic in an easy and informative style which introduce the reader with mysterious realm of evil beings that influenced lives of Serbian people since pre historic times.
