A rich source of ancient thinking found in fairy tales.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Heavens Unearthed in Nursery Rhymes and Fairy Tales (Hardcover)
Matt Kane has found a missing link between modern thinking and that of an older time, perhaps back 12,000 years and maybe a lot older than that.People have always attempted to find answers to what they do not understand. So what do we do today to probe the mind of ancient man? Well, there's religion, beliefs, traditions and myth. All peoples had these beliefs along with myriads of deities. Much of current belief and practice has it's roots deep in antiquity. The author has discovered another rich source of ancient thinking in fairy tales. The reason this book is so exciting is because it represents original thinking. Matt reveals that many fairy tales and nursery rhymes have their basis in ancient beliefs related to myths concerning the sun, moon and planets. Particularly important are solar and luner eclipses. Heavens Unearthed has opened up a channel of understanding heretofore unrealized! |
