About Searching for the Slavic Soul
From the publisher's feed
Searching for the Slavic Soul is an attempt to look at Slavic culture with the eyes of a Rodnover — a practitioner of Slavic Native Faith. We separate interpretations from facts and find in the…
Slavic heritage the elements which were suppressed by time and Christianisation. Focused on authentic, evidence-based pre-Christian Slavic traditions only — no Wicca, no eclectic neopaganism, no New-Age inventions.
