What led the young sorceress Yadviga to turn into the recluse Yaga, living on a Added to Watchlist. This duality reflects Russian culture's overall perception of women, as figures of both maternal love and mercurial, seductive duplicity, and especially a fear of a woman who operates outside the bounds of a male-dominated society. The Baba Yaga is both a mother and a trickster because these are the modes in which many men see all women. Arguably the most famous fairy tale featuring the Baba Yaga, and maybe even the most famous Russian fairy tale period, is "Vasilisa the Beautiful," which tells of a pretty young girl who—stop us if you've heard this one—lives with her wicked stepmother and two ugly stepsisters. The stepmother runs Vasilisa ragged with increasingly difficult chores, which the girl is always able to accomplish through the agency of a magical doll given to her by her late mother. When Vasilisa becomes old enough to marry, her stepmother decides to get rid of her so her beauty will stop distracting suitors from her own daughters. To this end, she sends Vasilisa on her hardest errand yet: to fetch fire from the Baba Yaga. The girl makes her way to the chicken leg hut, where the Baba Yaga immediately puts her to work to pay for the fire. The witch sets before the girl a series of impossible tasks, which she is able to finish thanks to her magic doll. Despite being surrounded by eerie sights like disembodied pairs of hands and the Baba Yaga eating inhuman amounts of food, Vasilisa keeps her cool and is polite to her witchy benefactor. In the end, the witch gives Vasilisa fire held within a skull, which, when Vasilisa brings it home, burns the stepmother and stepsisters to ashes. Vasilisa survives and marries the Tsar, of course. One of the most notable details from the story "Vasilisa the Beautiful" is not the strange and menacing happenings inside the Baba Yaga's hut, like the invisible servants or the constant looming threat of cannibalism, but rather what the title heroine spies through the window happening just outside the chicken leg house. When the Baba Yaga tasks the girl with separating a pile of grains, Vasilisa's magic doll tells her to rest and let the doll take care of it. When Vasilisa wakes in the morning and sees the firelit dim inside the skull-topped fence posts, she spies a rider dressed all in white galloping upon a milk-white horse around the house. The rider then jumps a wall and vanishes. Soon she spies a rider in red on a blood-red horse who does the same. In the evening, when the Baba Yaga returns to check on Vasilisa's work, the girl sees a rider in black on a coal-black horse galloping around the hut before vanishing like the others. After Vasilisa has done all of the witch's tasks to her liking, the girl works up the courage to ask the Baba Yaga who these riders were. The Baba Yaga reveals that the white, red, and black riders were the day, the sun, and the night, respectively, all of whom she refers to as her faithful servants. Wisely, Vasilisa asks no more questions of the witch. Some stories attribute unusual behavior to the Baba Yaga that is not ever mentioned again in other stories, but which nevertheless stick in your head just from pure strangeness. One such story is "Baba Yaga and the Brave Youth," in which a, well, brave youth lives together with, obviously, a cat and a sparrow. The cat and sparrow repeatedly go into the woods to cut wood despite being the two without thumbs, leaving the brave youth behind with one warning: if the Baba Yaga comes to count the spoons, hide and don't say anything. Three times the Baba Yaga comes to the house to count the spoons, and three times the boy can't hold his tongue when he sees the witch touching his spoon. The first two times the cat and sparrow chase the witch off, but the third time she snatches him off to her hut to eat him. Another unusual detail in this story is that here the Baba Yaga has three daughters. The Baba Yaga tells each daughter in turn to cook the boy, but he tricks each one of them into cooking themselves instead by acting like he doesn't know how to lie in a pan and asking them to show him. Pulling the same trick a fourth time leads to a cooked Baba Yaga and a youth running bravely home. Baba Yaga isn't the only recurring villain in Russian fairy tales. One of the other most commonly seen threats in these stories is Koshchei the Deathless, a terrifying soldier who cannot die, usually because his soul is hidden away nesting doll-style inside a series of increasingly large animals for example, it might be in an egg inside a duck inside a rabbit inside a goat or whatever. One story that includes both Koshchei and the Baba Yaga is the classic "Maria Moryevna," in which a prince named Ivan falls in love with the titular warrior princess and then accidentally frees the immortal killer she has chained up in her basement. Koshchei subsequently kidnaps Maria Moryevna, and Ivan sets out to pursue them. The first time Ivan catches Koshchei, the villain kills him and throws his dead body out to sea in a barrel. Fortunately, Ivan's brothers-in-law are powerful wizards who are able to restore him to life. They tell him that the only way to defeat Koshchei is with a horse from the Baba Yaga. Baba Yaga, you see, breeds mares so fast that they can circle the world in a day. Ivan manages to pass the Baba Yaga's series of tests and earns himself a magic horse with which he catches up to Koshchei, burns him to ashes, and returns home with his wife. What is a swan goose? Well, despite sounding like the sort of fictional animal mashups Aang and the gang encounter on Avatar: The Last Airbender , it turns out it's an actual kind of goose that lives in Russia, China, and Mongolia. It is also apparently a foul magical weapon pun intended in the bony hands of the Baba Yaga. While not a common occurrence in the various tales of the Baba Yaga, magical swan geese are the main plot device at the center of the story called, appropriately enough, "The Magical Swan Geese. In this particular tale, a careless young girl loses track of her younger brother, and from a talking oven, tree, and milk river, she finds out he was carried away by magical swan geese. In her search, she finds her brother inside the Baba Yaga's hut. The witch sets her to the task of spinning flax, and a mouse pops up to warn the girl that the Baba Yaga plans to steam the two children to death in her bath house, eat them, and ride away on their bones. The mouse helps the children escape, and they run home pursued by the swan geese. It's only with the help of the talking oven, tree, and milk river that the two kids are able to escape the witch geese's clutches and return home. Fairy tales are pretty weird. One explanation for why the Baba Yaga might seem different from story to story—benevolent or cruel, a horse dealer or a goose tamer—or how she keeps popping up even if she dies at the end of some stories, is that there's not just one Baba Yaga. If the name just means "spooky grandma," that's not necessarily a proper name, but maybe just a descriptor for a particular type of swamp witch, all of whom apparently found a clearance sale on houses with legs and novelty size mortars and pestles. That there are multiple Babas Yaga is made more explicit in stories in which there are literally multiple Babas Yaga, such as "The Maiden Tsar. In this story, a merchant's son named Ivan, of course falls in love with the titular maiden tsar, only for the two to be separated through the treachery of the boy's tutor and stepmother. Ivan goes to seek his beloved in the thrice tenth kingdom beyond the thrice nine lands, stopping to inquire at a certain chicken-legged hut. Baba Yaga - IMDb As an example, across the course of the famous story "Vasilisa the Beautiful," the Baba Yaga is equal parts trickster, monster, and savior in succession. This ambiguity is no accident, but rather is tied to her connection to femininity and the natural world, as a sort of earth mother. In one story, a young princess flees the witch's hut to escape ending up in her oven, and during her flight ends up creating a mountain range, a forest, and a lake with various magical items to slow the Baba Yaga down.

  • MAN in NATURE Pre-Christian Eastern Slavic Reflections on Nature
    MAN IN NATURE Pre-Christian Eastern Slavic Reflections on Nature Molly Kaushal What follows is a simple account of how, in earlier times, the Eastern Slavs, particularly the pre-Christian Russians, interacted with nature. Pre-Christian slavic religion was mainly based on nature worship. Fire, Earth and Water figured prominently in its beliefs and ritual practices. The forces of nature were personified, feared, and revered, and the Slavs developed a whole pantheon of gods and goddesses. However, the three main gods of their pantheon were linked together not in a hierarchical way, but in a mutually complementary way, where each was incomplete without the other. A whole cycle of rituals revolved around various forces of nature and their personified images. The arrival of Christianity as the official religion and the establishment of the Russian Orthodox Church culminated in the banning of many folk ritual practices which were pre-Christian in origin, and in the persecution of those who practised them. Yet, a complete annihilation of earlier beliefs and practices could never be accomplished. Pre- Christian beliefs and gods exerted such a strong influence upon the Russian mind that the only way to come to terms with them was through incorporating them in the mainstream of the Christian order. Water, Fire, and the Mother Earth Goddess were, and have remained, the most powerful images of Russian religious beliefs and practices, and folk memory has remained loyal to the personified and non- personified images of these elements. According to some scholars, Rusi, or Russians as we call them, have their origins in the word Roce.

  • Baba Yaga, Monsters of the Week, and Pop Culture's Formation Of
    humanities Article Baba Yaga, Monsters of the Week, and Pop Culture’s Formation of Wonder and Families through Monstrosity Jill Terry Rudy 1,* and Jarom Lyle McDonald 2 1 Department of English, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT 84602, USA 2 Independent Scholar, Provo, UT 84601, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-801-422-2869 Academic Editor: Claudia Schwabe Received: 15 March 2016; Accepted: 24 May 2016; Published: 3 June 2016 Abstract: This paper considers transforming forms and their purposes in the popular culture trope of the televised Monster of the Week (MOTW). In the rare televised appearances outside of Slavic nations, Baba Yaga tends to show up in MOTW episodes. While some MOTW are contemporary inventions, many, like Baba Yaga, are mythological and fantastic creatures from folk narratives. Employing the concept of the folkloresque, we explore how contemporary audiovisual tropes gain integrity and traction by indexing traditional knowledge and belief systems. In the process, we examine key affordances of these forms involving the possibilities of wonder and the portability of tradition. Using digital humanities methods, we built a “monster typology” by scraping lists of folk creatures, mythological beasts, and other supernatural beings from online information sources, and we used topic modeling to investigate central concerns of MOTW series. Our findings indicate connections in these shows between crime, violence, family, and loss. The trope formulates wonder and families through folk narrative and monster forms and functions. We recognize Baba Yaga’s role as villain in these episodes and acknowledge that these series also shift between episodic and serial narrative arcs involving close relationships between characters and among viewers and fans.

Today there are thirteen different Slavic groups divided into three blocs, Eastern, Southern and Western. These include the Russians, Poles, Czechs, Ukrainians, Byelorussians, Serbians,Croatians, Macedonians, Slovenians, Bulgarians, Kashubians, Albanians and Slovakians. Although the Lithuanians, Estonians and Latvians are of Baltic tribes, we are including some of their customs as they are similar to those of their Slavic neighbors.
