The Slavic Myths by Noah Charney
A Concise Guide to the Myths, Legends, Festivals and Rituals of the Slavic Peoples
A lively, accessible survey of Slavic mythology that retells origin stories and the lives of gods, goddesses, and folkloric creatures—from thunder gods and chthonic rivals to witches and household spirits—while tracing regional variations, ritual practices, and the effects of Christianization, and showing how these ancient beliefs have persisted in folk customs, literature, and modern cultural identity across Eastern Europe.
