Mountain Myths [EPUB ebook] 

Apoio

Mountain Myths unveils the captivating story of mountains as sacred spaces across diverse cultures and eras, exploring their transformation from mere geological features into potent symbols of the divine. Mountains, often perceived as inhospitable, have consistently been imagined as dwelling places of gods, inspiring profound spiritual experiences, and emanating immense power. This book examines how these majestic formations, with their imposing presence and dramatic natural phenomena, foster a sense of awe that humans interpret as divine, leading to rich mythologies and enduring traditions.

The book traces the origins of mountain worship from ancient civilizations to modern religions, highlighting the social and environmental factors contributing to their sacralization. It explores specific case studies, such as Mount Olympus, Mount Sinai, Mount Fuji, and the Andes Mountains, analyzing how different cultures have interpreted their sacredness.

The narrative progresses across three sections, beginning with the universal human tendency to imbue landscapes with spiritual significance, then delving into specific mountain mythologies, and finally exploring the modern implications of mountain reverence, including tourism and environmental conservation.
