Synopsis
Here, in one superbly written volume, is every known divine being throughout recorded history, from Athena and Brahma to the evil demon king Ngworekara of the African Fan people. Over 10,000 entries cover not only gods and goddesses, but also spirits, places, festivals, heroes, monsters, demigods, and more--including deities from Inuit, Native American, and African cultures. Alphabetically arranged entries provide the name of each deity, the tribe or culture that worshipped it, and an engaging explanation of its origins and functions., Nothing reveals more about a civilization than the gods and goddesses it worshipped. For thousands of years humans have fashioned stories about divine beings to explain their most mysterious, terrifying, and exalted experiences. Today the names of many of these deities have fallen into obscurity. The Dictionary of Ancient Deities brings these gods and goddesses back to light. Here, in one superbly written volume, is every known divine being throughout recorded history, from Athena and Brahma to the evil demon king Ngworekara of the African Fan people and the Babylonian dream messenger Zaqar. With over 10,000 entries, The Dictionary of Ancient Deities is the most comprehensive reference of its kind, covering not only gods and goddesses, but also spirits, places, festivals, sacred texts and objects, heroes, monsters, demigods, and the plethora of fantastic mythical beasts that have populated the human imagination from time immemorial. The encyclopedia also includes many deities often missing from standard collections, notably from Inuit, Native American, and African cultures. Alphabetically arranged entries provide the name of each deity (with alternate spellings), followed by the tribe or culture that worshipped the deity. Most importantly, the entries--whether brief descriptions or longer essays--offer lucid and engaging explanations of the origins and functions of the god or goddess. With a comprehensive index and an extensive bibliography, The Dictionary of Ancient Deities is the best choice for anyone intrigued by the rich pantheon of divine beings that have mirrored the human psyche and shaped our earliest civilizations.

- s***s (6)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaItem arrived in perfect condition from USA to NZ. Extremely well packaged and protected. Item as described. Postage was as quick as it could be travelling so far around the world (approx 3 weeks). Would decently buy from this seller again. Thank you so much :-)
- _***e (325)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaVery highly recommended! Expertly and thoughtfully packaged for safe travels (from those mail carriers who don't care if your package arrives at all, much less undamaged) to its final destination. It seems like this seller actually cares that the items being shipped arrive in the exact conditions they were in before shipping. Amazing. Maybe other sellers could take a hint? Overall, an excellent transaction. I would definitely do business with them again, as long as they'll have me!
- o***d (679)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThe Great Courses: The Age of Henry VIII was as advertised--new. The course arrived timely and safely protected in a cardboard box without any problems or any cause for complaint. A great value for the money and a useful supplement for the PBS series The Mirror and Light for those who wish to know more about the real Henry VIII. A great course provided by a great vendor.
