Opis

The visionary tradition of spirits, gods, and demons continues to subvert our rational universe, erupting from the shadows in times of intense religious and philosophical transition. Renaissance magic and tribal ritual. Romantic poetry and the ecstasy of the shaman, to trace how societies have used myths to make sense of the world.
