Valeriy Voytovych. Henealohija bohiv davn‘oji Ukrajiny. (Genealogy of Gods of the Ancient Ukraine)

"In the monograph, virtually for the first time in history of the Ukrainian philosophical science, the author uses the comparative historical analysis and comparison with other Indo-European mythological systems and tries to comprehensively analyze and reconstruct the mythic and religious worldview of our Ancestors, in particular, the pantheon of ancient Ukrainian gods. The book accumulates unique illustrative material from various historical and modern sources.

"Genealogy of Gods of the Ancient Ukraine" launches, to say the least of it, a unique series in the history of the Ukrainian book printing – "Ukrainian mythology", within the framework of which in the nearest future the new books will appear: "Kolyada. In Three Volumes", "Yarylo. In Two Volumes", "Kupalo. In Two Volumes", "Spells", "Tall-Tale Stories", etc.

For researchers – historians, philosophers, teachers and students of higher educational facilities, as well as for an extensive audience of readers wishing to consciously understand roots of the history and culture of their native people."

In Ukrainian.
