  • Medicine and Mythology: Health and Healing in Indo-European Myths1
    Medicine and Mythology: Health and Healing in Indo-European Myths1 Carole M. Cusack, University of Sydney Introduction This paper examines myths that deal with issues of sickness and health from the Indo- European cultures of pre-Christian Europe, including the Ancient Greeks, the Vedic Indians, the Celts, and the medieval Scandinavians. The themes explored include: the relationship of physical perfection to moral excellence; mortality and attempts to avoid or reverse death; and the figure of the healer as exponent of both positive and negative powers. It will be demonstrated that the concepts of wellness and illness were located within a complex cosmological and social mythology that is common to all these Indo-European cultures, although there are certain cultural specificities identifiable within particular mythological texts. Body and Cosmos: Fundamental Indo-European Concepts It is important to begin with a basic definition of ‘myth’, which too often carries the connotation of something that is ‘not true’ in the modern West. The Greek word muthos means story or narrative, and in this context: myth or a mythology means a narrative or a collection of narratives about the gods or supernatural beings used by a people – clan, tribe or ethnic community - for purposes of interpreting the meaning of their experience and their world, both individually and corporately. What is fundamental in the definition of ‘myth’, however, and which distinguishes mythical narrative from other kinds of stories, is that myth articulates the basic self-understanding of the people and thereby operates as a kind of charter for the total cultural life.2 Thus, in Indo-European cultures, the corpus of mythology functioned variously as law, philosophy, educational charter, political manifesto, and a range of other types of authoritative texts, which are understood to be distinct in modernity.

  • Myths of Babylonia and Assyria by Donald A. Mackenzie
    Myths Of Babylonia And Assyria By Donald A. Mackenzie Introduction Ancient Babylonia has made stronger appeal to the imagination of Christendom than even Ancient Egypt, because of its association with the captivity of the Hebrews, whose sorrows are enshrined in the familiar psalm: By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down; Yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. We hanged our harps upon the willows.... In sacred literature proud Babylon became the city of the anti-Christ, the symbol of wickedness and cruelty and human vanity. Early Christians who suffered persecution compared their worldly state to that of the oppressed and disconsolate Hebrews, and, like them, they sighed for Jerusalem--the new Jerusalem. When St. John the Divine had visions of the ultimate triumph of Christianity, he referred to its enemies--the unbelievers and persecutors--as the citizens of the earthly Babylon, the doom of which he pronounced in stately and memorable phrases: Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, And is become the habitation of devils, And the hold of every foul spirit, And a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.... For her sins have reached unto heaven And God hath remembered her iniquities.... The merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her, For no man buyeth their merchandise any more. "At the noise of the taking of Babylon", cried Jeremiah, referring to the original Babylon, "the earth is moved, and the cry is heard among the nations.... It shall be no more inhabited forever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation."

  • The Dagda, Thor and ATU 1148B: Analogues, Parallels, Or Correspondences? 1
    The Dagda, Thor and ATU 1148B: Analogues, Parallels, or Correspondences? 1 JOHN SHAW University of Edinburgh Abstract Since ancient times celestial thunder gods have been a familiar feature in mythologies throughout the Indo-European language area. Their Irish counterpart, the Dagda, is a major personage at the centre of the Mythological Cycle, and his possible connections to the Scandinavian god Thor are examined here. Following a brief section dealing with questions of methodology, points of comparison are addressed which include the two gods’ common primary role as defenders of their realm; their place in the assembly of gods; their principal weapons and implements (iron club/hammer/harp, cauldron); their associa- tions with cosmology and artisans; and their visits to the abode of their monstrous adversaries, incorporating elements of the burlesque. Both gods appear in versions of the international tale ATU 1148B ‘The Thunder Instrument’ (Thor in the Old Norse poem Þrymskviða, and the Dagda’s recovery of his harp from the Irish Mythological Cycle), and the nature of the parallels between the two versions is examined. The question of a borrowing during the Viking era, or of an inherited body of tradition possibly from Indo-European times, is discussed: the international tale type also leads to the myth, at a further temporal and geographical remove, of the Greek god Zeus and the theft of his thunderbolts. A proposed sequential account of the development and evolution of both gods from remote antiquity is provided. Keywords: Thor, The Dagda, comparative mythology, Celtic mythology Thunder gods, with their all-powerful thunderbolts and hammers, have featured prominently in mythological traditions from Scandinavia to India, providing parallels that have suggested a variety of ancient common origins (West 2007, 238–55).

  • From Roman to Romanesque : Some Possible Sources of Various Elements of Romanesque Iconography
    From Roman to Romanesque : Some possible sources of various elements of Romanesque Iconography. Introduction The Romanesque Renaissance flourished simultaneously all over Christendom, wherever the Roman Empire had left monuments extant or capable of being unearthed. Elements of classical iconography as well as of architecture and decorative details were re-used, hence the term “Romanesque”. In some cases there may have been a deliberate intention to supplant earlier religions by subsuming them within Christian images. The scope of this paper is not to explore the significance of the images except where there is an obvious divergence in their meanings over the centuries, but rather to indicate earlier use of some Romanesque images in Pagan times. I have not touched on decoration without human or animal content as this has already been covered by the late René Crozet in “Survivances Antiques dans le décor Roman”. Summary Paleo-Christian representations using Pagan iconography The cult of Sabazios as a possible source for some elements found in Romanesque art including the “femme au serpent” image Sabazios becomes identified with Mithras, the importance of bulls and rams in sculpture, associated worship of Cybele, taurobolic altars Mithraic religion associated with the signs of the Zodiac, Zodiac images used in Romanesque sculpture Mythological creatures such as centaurs and mermaids, hybrid monsters and grotesque people, blowers of horns and trumpets, hunting scenes Foliate masks, masks spewing vegetation, heads surrounded by foliage Paleo-Christian representations using Pagan iconography A typical example is this mosaic of Jesus as Sol or Helios, the Sun God, from the tomb of the Julii family in the Vatican grottos, under St Peter’s, Rome : Fig 1 : Jesus as Sun God, Rome Note the liberal use of vine leaves : Jesus is also the True Vine, and Christians may have wished to establish His supremacy over the cult of Dionysos as well as of Apollo.

De vormde de basis van het geloven en denken van de oude Grieken. Vandaag de dag is het nog altijd heel handig om kennis te hebben van de Griekse mythologie. Veel verhalen hebben namelijk hun sporen nagelaten in bijvoorbeeld de kunst en de hedendaagse taal. Verscheidene begrippen en uitdrukkingen uit het hedendaags taalgebruik zijn aan de Griekse mythologie ontleend. Denk bijvoorbeeld aan de tantaluskwelling, de doos van Pandora, of de sisyfusarbeid.

En wat is de herkomst van deze zegswijze? De Griekse dichter Hesiodos geldt na Homerus als de oudst bekende Griekse dichter. Samen met Homerus legde hij de basis voor de Griekse mythologie. Met de Zuilen van Hercules worden traditioneel de grote rotsen bedoeld die aan weerszijden van de Straat van Gibraltar te vinden zijn. De naam verwijst naar de mythologische held Hercules Herakles. In de Griekse mythologie gold Selene als de godin van de maan. Ze was de zus van Eos de godin van de dageraad en Helios de zonnegod.

    Aldous Storm Calmer Oral History Renee 0:01 Alright, for the record, please state your name and the name of your coven, and where it's located. Aldous 0:07 Okay, my name is Aldous, and I am Arch Priest of the Ancient Path Coven, headquartered in Kansas, but we are located across the country. Renee: 0:21 How do you identify your religion? Are you Wiccan? What's the path? Aldous: 0:27 Well, we follow the old European religion, the native European religions. All of those religions stem from the Proto Indo European people. It's technically a language, but it's the best term we can think of to identify them with. Wicca is the closest religion that people can identify with us. So we tend to roll with this because, even though it's not wrong, it's not necessarily right either, but it's kind of, it's okay enough. [Long pause while we wait on the transcription to catch up] Renee 1:15 Alright, so how would you describe your general beliefs? What are the defining characteristics of the Proto Indo European religion? Aldous 1:23 So we are a polytheistic religion. We have lots and lots of gods and goddesses. And we also have an ancestor worship characteristic. So we believe there's two primordial deities, the Sky Father Dyeus and the Earth Mother Deghom, both of which were Proto Indo European deities. Every other god and goddess stems from them. And what kind of sets us apart from other polytheistic religions is that the, so we might pray to the Sky Father and the Earth Mother, but we don't necessarily believe that they have a direct interest in us individually, more so with the whole of what's called the xartus spelled x a r t u s if you want to look that up.
