Sinossi
Lena River Spirits explores the spiritual connection between the indigenous peoples of Siberia and the Lena River. This world history examines how shamanic traditions have shaped cultural identity, viewing the river not just as a physical feature, but as a living entity and a conduit to the spirit world. Shamanism, emphasizing interconnectedness and spirit communication, thrives in the Lena River basin, where the river is seen as a pathway for shamans and a source of healing. The book traces the evolution of these beliefs and their adaptation through time, providing insight into the distinct cultural groups along the Lena. The book highlights the Lena River as a spiritual landscape that actively shapes the belief systems of its people. It challenges conventional views of rivers by emphasizing their profound spiritual significance, supported by ethnographic studies and historical accounts. Unique to this work is its focus on the spiritual dimension of the Lena River, moving beyond geographical or economic considerations to highlight indigenous voices. The book guides readers through the river's geographical significance, shamanic beliefs, and specific cultural interactions, culminating in a discussion of its contemporary relevance and challenges.
