The Black Gentleman: Manifestations of the Devil in Estonian Folk Religion
AU$50.00 Read MoreAdd to cartUlo Valk
Helskinki: Suomalainen Tiedeakatemia, 2000.This empirical study of the Devil in the collections of the Estonian Folklore Archives, reflecting the world of belief inhabited by the Estonians in the 19th and 20th centuries, is also a book about suspicion and fear in everyday life. It describes how religious folklore has drawn borders between the human and the non-human, how it has modelled the Other, the supernatural and social evil. As a study of folk narrative, and legends in particular, it mainly discusses variation at the level of motif with special reference to the visual guises of the Devil. FF Communications No. 276 published by the Finnish Academy of Science and Letters.

Attitudes and Interpretations in Comparative Religion
AU$50.00 Read MoreAdd to cartRene Gothoni
Helskinki: Suomalainen Tiedeakatemia, 2000.What is the attitude of the scholar of Comparative Religion to religion and religiosity? What is the specific method in Comparative Religion? Does the study of religions differ from other corresponding disciplines? The present volyme tries to answer these questions on the basis of fieldwork among Sinhalese Buddhist monks in Sri Lanka and Orthodox monks and pilgrims on the Holy Mountain of Athos in Greece. Apart from refining a more perceptive view of religion and religiosity, study elucidates the definition of religion and the principles applied in the comparative study of religions by factual cases from these two cultural fields.
