Publisher's Synopsis
Finno-Tartarian Magical Mythology is a book written by Francois Lenormant that explores the magical and mythological traditions of the Finno-Ugric and Tartarian peoples. The book delves into the beliefs, practices, and legends of these ancient cultures, which were known for their shamanistic and animistic beliefs. Lenormant draws on a variety of sources, including folk tales, epic poems, and religious texts, to paint a vivid picture of the mystical and supernatural worldviews of the Finno-Ugric and Tartarian peoples. The book covers topics such as the creation of the world, the role of the gods and spirits in everyday life, and the use of magic and divination to communicate with the supernatural realm. It also explores the connections between these traditions and other mythological systems, such as those of the ancient Greeks and Romans. Overall, Finno-Tartarian Magical Mythology is a fascinating and comprehensive study of the magical and mythological traditions of two ancient cultures that have largely been forgotten by modern society.THIS 18 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Chaldean Magic its Origin and Development, by Francois Lenormant.
