Synopsis

Storm Beasts explores the captivating origins of storm myths, delving into the geological and meteorological events that inspired tales of dragons and weather gods across ancient civilizations. The book uniquely combines mythology with earth sciences and historical climatology, revealing how extreme weather and natural disasters shaped cultural narratives. For instance, volcanic eruptions may have fueled dragon myths, while severe storms led to the creation of powerful weather deities. 

 
The book progresses through chapters examining the geological genesis of myths, meteorological manifestations in folklore, and the cultural impact of these beliefs. It argues that these myths aren't merely fanciful stories but culturally encoded records of humanity's attempts to understand and cope with the forces of nature. 

 
By analyzing ancient texts, geological surveys, and climatological data, Storm Beasts uncovers the factual basis behind these legendary creatures, offering insights into our ancestors' relationship with the environment. Ultimately, the book emphasizes the enduring relevance of these storm myths, suggesting they hold valuable lessons about environmental resilience and our perception of risk. 

 
This interdisciplinary approach, blending scientific analysis with mythological interpretation, makes Storm Beasts a valuable resource for those interested in history, earth sciences, and the intersection of culture and environment.

Lurking Under the Surface -...

Brandon R. Grafius

Horror can be a valuable conversation partner for the spiritual questions that animate so many of us. 
 
 
 
Whether through a movie, television show, novel, or even myth, horror as a genre has always spoken to our deepest human fears and anxieties: fear of death, of the unknown, of knowing too much. Whether you're looking at classic narratives like Frankenstein, or contemporary films like Get Out, which explores racism and white guilt, horror provides a window into our culture and what makes us human. The same can be said of religion. 
 
 
 
Horror movie buff and religion scholar Brandon Grafius finds common ground between these two seemingly disparate bedfellows—horror and religion—in Lurking under the Surface. What parallels can we draw between The Walking Dead and sacred texts? How do the stories of Hebrew Christian scriptures and apocalyptic films like A Quiet Place and Bird Box help us find hope when it's in short supply? When we treat them both seriously, we see that horror movies and religion lead us through the same sets of questions. Both explore questions of justice, hope, and our relationship to the world and the cosmos. And both offer us ways to make meaning out of the contradictory pieces of our world—a world filled with so much hope and so many recognizable fears lurking just beneath the surface.
