Mitologia Słowiańska by Aleksander Brückner






The author starts the book by ripping apart anyone who has ever dared to write anything, before him, about Slavic culture. The level of hubris is simply revulsive.


Aleksander Brückner was a Polish scholar of Slavic languages and literatures, philologist, lexicographer and historian of literature. He is among the most notable Slavicists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and the first to prepare complete monographs on the history of Polish language and culture. 
Born: January 29, 1856, Berezhany, Ukraine
