O ovoj e-knjizi

Ethereal Beings explores the profound and lasting impact of spirit beliefs on human societies, religious practices, and the evolution of horror narratives. It argues that beliefs in spirits and ghosts are not just relics of the past but a persistent force shaping our understanding of the world. The book investigates how these beliefs have molded cultural norms and artistic expressions, highlighting the human need to understand and interact with the unknown. For example, ancient animistic traditions and modern-day paranormal investigations both reflect our ongoing engagement with the supernatural.

The book progresses from examining animism and ancestor veneration in early societies to analyzing the integration of spirit beliefs into organized religions, such as those of ancient Egypt, Greece, and medieval Europe. Key chapters delve into specific practices like exorcism and divination. It then transitions to how these religious beliefs have been adapted within the horror genre, demonstrating how societal anxieties related to spirits and death are reflected in literature and film. This approach offers readers a comprehensive view of how spirit beliefs have shaped both religion and culture throughout history.
