A quick book review of Egyptian Legends and Stories, a slim volume collecting ancient Egyptian folklore and myth.
A fascinating take on the development of Roman religion and the shifts in how people interact with the divine.
An inside look at a survival guide for monsters of any stripe looking to get by in the modern, hyper-informed world!
And that, I think, was the true strength of this book: a clear understanding of how tales of magic reflect real-world beliefs, injustices, and mechanisms of power.
From folklore to drugs, plants are a part of our daily lives and healing–as this lovely reference book can attest.
Part of an ongoing series in which I share fun tidbits from story research. Enjoy!
