Puran Kotha Purono Noi by Debolina Raychowdhury Banerjeeer [Hardcover]

"Debolina is a professor of English by profession, but her love lies in comparative mythology and semiotics.

Most of the ancient civilizations today are covered in a grey shroud of oblivion. While the regal grandeur of some still remains, many have become nameless and faceless under the harsh blows of time. This book attempts to bring together similar rituals, subjects, animals, and characters from the depths of those civilizations through comparative study. It not only unites similar stories or characters but also seeks the reasons for these remarkable similarities among different civilizations worldwide. The search for resemblances among certain gods, animals, symbols, and various subjects in world mythology has extended beyond India to ancient Greece, mysterious Egypt, deep Africa, vibrant Norse and Celtic, fairy tale Russia, colorful China, Japan, and many more ancient civilizations."
