Produktbeschreibung

"Holy Beasts" explores the profound connection between animals and the spiritual realm across diverse cultures and throughout history. It examines how animal symbolism and animal archetypes have shaped religious beliefs, from ancient animal veneration to modern perspectives on animal rights and environmental ethics. Discover how the powerful bull, the cunning serpent, and other sacred animals have influenced human spirituality.

The book investigates the origins of animal veneration, tracing it back to early human societies. It also identifies recurring animal archetypes in religions, analyzing their symbolic meanings and narratives. By drawing upon historical accounts, anthropological studies, and religious texts, "Holy Beasts" proposes that the veneration of animals reflects a fundamental human desire to connect with forces beyond ourselves.

The book begins by introducing core concepts of animal symbolism and religious beliefs. It then progresses through thematic chapters, exploring animals as symbols of power, messengers, and even negative forces. This exploration culminates in a discussion of contemporary issues, such as animal rights and environmental ethics, in light of these historical and religious perspectives. This holistic approach makes it accessible to a broad audience.
