Description

Slavic mythology brought together with the legends, folkore and fairy tales of Eastern Europe in this intriguing new collection. With a new introduction this collection of Slavic tales is based on the oral storytelling traditions of the peoples of Eastern Europe, from the Polish and the Slovaks to the Macedonians, Czechs and Serbians, with roots in pagan folklore and influenced by the Viking traders who settled in Kiev in the early middle ages. Stories abound with mountains, magic palaces and temples and such incredible tales as 'The King of the Toads', 'Vassilissa the Cunning, and the Tsar of the Sea.' and 'The Feather of Bright Finest the Falcon'

Author Biography:

Ema Lakinska is an associate researcher at the Institute of Macedonian Literature, part of the Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, North Macedonia. As an INALCO-Paris alumni and present PhD candidate, her research work focuses on Macedonian folk tales and fairy tales, as well as Slavic myths and legends. Her interpretations of literature follow the Jungian and psychoanalytic principle and go into the depths of every story, in order to discover its hidden and mystic meanings and place it closer to the readers. Jackson is General Editor of The World's Greatest Myths and Legends series, with titles including 'Myths of Babylon', 'Indian Myth', 'Egyptian Myth', 'Norse Myth' and 'Polynesian Island Myth'. He is editor of 'Myths and Legends' and foreword writer for 'Celtic Myths and Tales'. Other related work includes articles on the Philosophy of Time, 'Macbeth, A Gothic Chaos' and William Blake's use of mythology in his visionary literature.
