Since the Slavs did not have a written culture before their conversion to Christianity, all the texts were authored by people who were involved in this long process or in contact with the Slavs. For this reason, the texts come from a lengthy period from the ninth to the fifteenth century. Since the texts were originally written in seven different ancient languages, the present book is the result of the work of a large team of specialists.Studies in the history of religions.Texts and sources in the history of religions ;Volume 169.PaganismSlavic countriesEarly works to 1800Slavic countriesReligionEarly works to 1800Paganism299.18Álvarez-Pedrosa Juan AntonioMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910811384503321Sources of Slavic pre-Christian religion3938138UNINA
