Tungkol sa ebook na ito

Chained Gods explores the captivating theme of deities who face limitations on their power, such as imprisonment or banishment. It examines how these narratives reveal anxieties about power, justice, and cosmic order. The book argues that these stories are not mere mythological anomalies but reflect deep-seated societal concerns. For example, the imprisonment of gods like Loki or Prometheus can symbolize challenges to established hierarchies or periods of chaos.

The book begins by introducing the nature of divine power and the symbolism of imprisonment. It then progresses through three sections: examining specific examples of chained gods across diverse mythologies, analyzing common themes like rebellion and sacrifice, and exploring the social and historical implications of these myths.

By focusing on the theme of divine imprisonment and restraint, Chained Gods offers a unique perspective, bridging religious studies, history, and mythology to appeal to anyone interested in the complex relationship between power, religion, and society.
