Ancient people considered the other world to be situated in the North and to manifest itself in spectacular northern lights. This specific mythic cosmology formed the basis of Slavic fairy tales, incantations and folk beliefs. The proposed book represents the first systematic research of the northern roots of Russian culture that shows the role of northern lights in the mythology of Slavs.
