Description

The book "Five Stages of the Greek Religion" follows the establishment development of the religion from the very first Greek beliefs through creating the Olympic Pantheon to the early stages of Christianity. The authors prove the universal truth that the essence of the beliefs remains the same. The contemporary Greeks celebrate the resurrection of Christ with the same emotion as they celebrated the rebirth of the Greek gods, as a metaphor for the natural cycles of season change. The book is dedicated to finding the universal laws of the development of human beliefs.
