Hardcover. Condition: New. ISBN:9789359441535,192pp. Vedic Myths and Rituals, edited by Jan E.M. Houben and Julieta Rotaru, explores the intricate relationship between Vedic myths and Vedic rituals. The book delves into the symbolic and practical dimensions of Vedic traditions, offering fresh insights into ancient Indian religious practices. The essays in this volume address both problems of the textual sources of the most ancient myths and rituals, and reflections on different models of theorizing the Vedic myths and rituals. The volume presents a rich tapestry of topics, ranging from the study of myths and their employment in rituals, as seen in the story of the horse of Pedu and its connection to snake poison remedies, to the formal structures of Vedic rituals like the Svi??ak?t that is an important part of numerous Vedic rituals such as the Agni??oma. The book also examines the role of myths in understanding rituals such as the Saumik? D?k??, the consecration for the Soma sacrifice, and questions the authenticity of female puberty rituals in ancient Vedic and Indian culture. In an exploration of the significance of commendations in the Atharvavedic tradition from ancient Kau?ikas?tra to current practices of the Odisha Paippal?din scholars, ritualistic performances of entrusting individuals to divine protection through symbolic acts and prayers are highlighted. Additionally, it provides interpretations of lesser-known rituals, such as the bride with the yoke in the Kau?ikas?tra, and explores interplay of word, style, and myth in the operation of Vedic rituals including medicinal magic. This volume is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Vedic studies, offering a multidisciplinary approach to understanding the deep connections between myth, ritual, and symbolism in ancient Indian culture. Through detailed analyses and innovative interpretations, the contributors shed light on the enduring significance of Vedic traditions in shaping religious and cultural practices.

Condition: Sehr Gut. Zustandsbeschreibung: Mängelexemplarstempel auf Schnitt, Einband leicht bestoßen/defect copy stamp on cut, slightly bumped. Unlocking the Golden Past of the Rudari Woodworkers. This book is the first monograph on the history of the Rudari people of Romania and the first mapping of their settlements. The Rudari are a population which has traditionally inhabited the Balkan area and much of Central Europe. Many of them do not know the Romani language but speak Romanian dialects and today make a living out of carving wooden household items, although their Slavic name alludes to mining. Indeed, the Rudari were for centuries gold-prospectors and gold-washers working for the Crown of Wallachia and were administrated as slaves by a monastery situated on the auriferous Olt river. The authors have reconstructed the fascinating history of this ethnic group for a period of 500 years until the 19th century when gold-panning went in decline due to the exhaustion of the reserves of alluvial gold.
