Book Synopsis Fire in History and Mythology by : Martin K Ettington
Download or read book Fire in History and Mythology written by Martin K Ettington and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-27 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fire is fascinating isn't it? We love to watch fires, whether in a campfire, one in a backyard hearth, in an in house fireplace. We love to cook in it, use it to purify things, or even produce weapons. Building fires is also a lot of fun. What a rush to start a fire from sticks and fire starters that you put together then watch it burn. And what about cooking "smores" as a desert with your friends of family? There are also lots of methods to start a fire.Fires also protect us from wild animals. Even the largest predator doesn't want to go near a fire. They are scared of it-and for good reason. There are also many legends of fire beings from the fire breathing dragon to the Phoenix which burns to death and is reborn out of the ashes.Fires have also destroyed many cities in history as well as wild fires which can destroy huge areas of land and the properties on it. These fires led to the development of fire departments.Cooking was first done on fires and is still done on many fires today. Thousands or years of recipes were all developed over open fires.There is also poetry written about fire. I've included some near the end of the book.Man's climb from animals to modern humans is closely related to the usage of fire. We would probably not have survived through history without the command or fire.
Download or read book Chinese Mythology written by Anne Birrell and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 1999-04-26 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Chinese Mythology, Anne Birrell provides English translations of some 300 representative myth narratives selected from over 100 classical texts, many of which have never before been translated into any Western language. Organizing the narratives according to themes and motifs common to world mythology, Birrell addresses issues of source, dating, attribution, textural variants, multiforms, and context. Drawing on exhaustive work in comparative mythology, she surveys the development of Chinese myth studies, summarizes the contribution of Chinese and Japanese scholars to the study of Chinese myth since the 1920s, and examines special aspects of traditional approaches to Chinese myth. The result is an unprecedented guide to the study of Chinese myth for specialists and nonspecialists alike.

Book Synopsis A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF ALTAIC MYTHOLOGIES IN CHINA by : G. Namjil
Download or read book A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF ALTAIC MYTHOLOGIES IN CHINA written by G. Namjil and published by American Academic Press. This book was released on 2023-08-28 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lending support to the search for the roots of the Altaic language family and pushing forward the field of Altaic mythologies and related topics, this comprehensive study of the early beliefs of China’s Altaic peoples is the first thorough, systematic academic treatment in this, as yet, underdeveloped research field. While discussing nine types of Altaic mythologies, A Comparative Study of Altaic Mythologies in China uses primary sources in several languages to explore Altaic myths’ origins, development over centuries, lineage relationships, and external influences. For this purpose, it compares the mythologies of various ethnic groups within the Altaic language family, Altaic mythologies with those of other cross-language and cross-cultural ethnic groups having direct, indirect or even no cultural exchanges with them in history, as well as Altaic mythologies with folklore, religion and other interdisciplinary domains of Altaic Studies by applying the theories and methods of comparative literature studies, comparative folklore studies and comparative mythology to a vast collection of mythological materials. As wide-ranging as it is deeply researched, this serious exploration of Altaic Studies breaks the boundaries of the previously closed research model, expands theoretical horizons, broadens the research scope, introduces a new mechanism for understanding myths and co-cultures of the Altaic language family, and offers insight toward the reconstruction of Proto-Altaic Mythology.
