Discover the Myths That Shape Our World
What if mythology isn't just about ancient gods and distant cultures, but about how we see the world today? That's the core idea behind "Введение в мифологию" (Introduction to Mythology) by Alexandra Leonidovna Barkova—a course that made her lectures unforgettable to her students. In this book, myths from Ancient Egypt, Greece, Rome, Scandinavia, and India are revealed as parts of a single web of beliefs, highlighting both universal patterns and the unique traits of each culture.
Barkova, a respected philologist and mythologist, taught at the UNIK Institute for over two decades, earning a reputation for keeping every student awake through her lively, often ironic delivery. Her bestselling works include Slavic Myths (named best popular science book of 2022 on LiveLib) and Potions in Rus' (silver prize winner in 2023). This volume is an updated edition of her foundational lecture course, blending clarity with fresh research.
