توضیحاتی درمورد کتاب به خارجی

Reveals how Christian mythology has more to do with long-standing pagan traditions than the Bible

• Explains how the church fathers knowingly incorporated pagan elements into the Christian faith to ease the transition to the new religion

• Identifies pagan deities that were incorporated into each of the saints

• Shows how all the major holidays in the Christian calendar are modeled on pagan rituals and myths, including Easter and Christmas

In this extensive study of the Christian mythology that animated Europe in the Middle Ages, author Philippe Walter reveals how these stories and the holiday traditions connected with them are based on long-standing pagan rituals and myths and have very little connection to the Bible. The author explains how the church fathers knowingly incorporated pagan elements into the Christian faith to ease the transition to the new religion. Rather than tear down the pagan temples in Britain, Pope Gregory the Great advised Saint Augustine of Canterbury to add the pagan rituals into the mix of Christian practices and transform the pagan temples into churches. Instead of religious conversion, it was simply a matter of convincing the populace to include Jesus in their current religious practices.

Providing extensive documentation, Walter shows which major calendar days of the Christian year are founded on pagan rituals and myths, including the high holidays of Easter and Christmas. Examining hagiographic accounts of the saints, he reveals the origin of these symbolic figures in the deities worshipped in pagan Europe for centuries. He also explores how the identities of saints and pagan figures became so intermingled that some saints were transformed into pagan incarnations, such as Mary Magdalene’s conversion into one of the Celtic Ladies of the Lake.

In revealing the pagan roots of many Christian figures, stories, and rituals, Walter provides a new understanding of the evolution of religious belief. Reviews “Walter writes in a distinguished academic tradition that goes back to Jesse L. Weston and Sir James Frazier. He describes a rich complex of pagan, European traditions that inform Christian ritual. In doing so, he illuminates beliefs that underlie some of our most cherished stories and practices. I will recommend this book to my students.” (Steve Harris, associate professor of English, University of Massachusetts) “It is generally understood that Christianity strengthened its position early on in the popular mind by usurping and bending pagan rituals and sacred locales. In this ambitious scholarly treatise, professor of medieval French literature Walter marries the pagan and Christian calendars in great detail by examining ancient myths, saints, and celebrations. He visits All Saints Day, the Twelve Days of Christmas, Candlemas, Easter, Ascension, St. John’s Day of Summer, St. Peter’s Chains Day, and St. Michael’s Day to find that these yearly rounds, roughly 40 days apart, share a mythical realm with the dates of Carnival, best understood as ‘a religion--it was even the religion preceding Christianity.’ Walter’s sources include acts of councils, confessors’ manuals, literary texts such as Arthurian romances, hagiographic works, and medieval iconography. While he doesn’t attack Christianity on its spiritual merits, he concludes boldly that ‘Christianity would have had no chance of imposing itself in the West if, on certain points of dogma and rites, it had not responded to the religious needs of the converted pagans.’ . . . This volume makes a strong scholarly contribution to understanding the evolution of belief, where ‘it is important to understand that nothing has been lost or created.’” (Publishers Weekly) About the Author Philippe Walter is a professor of medieval French literature at the Université Stendhal in Grenoble. He has published numerous books about the Middle Ages and has overseen the editing and translation of the Grail romances for the prestigious Bibliotheque de la Pléiade. He lives in France. See all Editorial Reviews Christian Mythology - The Revelations of Pagan Origins By Philippe Walter. Painstakingly researched, Walter starts at the beginning of the year, explains the Pagan origins of every holiday or feast day and how the church tried to cover them up, Christianize them or destroy them. He explains how many Pagan Gods and Goddesses and other deities were converted to Christian “saints” in an attempt to lure the Pagans into Christianity. Very interesting book and a must-read for anyone that has ever questioned the credibility of the Christian religion or for Pagans interested in learning about the roots of Pagan beliefs and practices. I read it right after I finished Pagan & Christian Creeds, Their Meaning & Origin by Edward Carpenter which was also a very good book on the topic of Pagan beliefs and their origins. I loved this book and give it 5 stars. -------- Thoroughly researched and dense with information, this book sheds light on the origins of Christian holidays, saints, and even the life of Jesus. There has been much discussion in recent decades about what is fact (and what is poetic license) in the familiar stories about early Christianity. Professor Walter takes it all a step further as he documents the evidence supporting the theory that much of Christianity was merged into existing pagan ritual and symbolism. He explains how the need to bring pagan worshippers into the new religion superceded the need to accurately record historical events. Some readers might be distressed by these revelations, but I think most of you will be intrigued to unravel the mysterious roots of one of the world’s major spiritual traditions. For many New Consciousness readers it will be a relief to find out that the religion in which they were raised is actually tied to natural cycles and common transcendent experiences after all. I highly recommend this book for its insight and attention to detail. It certainly gives readers much to think about. Comment 7 people found this helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No -------- Good book on history of religion. Yes, Christianity DID incorporate elements of earlier religions. Religion is an element of culture and civilization which evolves as do others.
